Topology

• Network Topology - It is the arrangement of computers, cables, and other components on a network, either logical or physical connections within a network.
• Physical Topology - It is the physical layout of the components on thee network
• Star topology - It is a network in which each network component is physically connected to a central node such as router, hub or switch.
• Bus topology - Consist of numbers of computers in a row connected by a single cable segment.
• Ring topology - it is network configuration where device connections create a circular data path.
• Mesh Topology - It is network setup where each computer and network device is introuduced with one another.
• Hybrid Topology - A combination of two or more topology.
• Give the five common types of network topology
