Resource summary
Ring Network
Peer to peer as there is no server
All computers are arranged in a circle
Data sent by one computer passes around the ring until it reaches the correct computer
Advantages
Network is not dependent on one computer
Each computer has equal status so no one computer can 'hog' the network
Disadvantages
A break in communication (wire or wireless) means the whole network goes down
Faults are difficult to locate
Impossible to keep network running when new equipment is added or removed
