Topology refers to the way in which computer networks are connected. It is the interconnection configuration that is responsible for providing effective communication. It involves connecting devices, arranging nodes and cables (Rouse, 2016). There are different types of network topologies, and each of them has specific tasks. In this paper, the differences between the topologies will be discussed.
Bus Topology
In this kind of topology, all devices are connected to a common shared cable. The name of the cable is a bus. Thus, there is a way in which all devices are directly connected to each other in the network. For ...
