Network Topologies Tutorial

Welcome to the tutorial on network topologies! Understanding different network topologies is crucial for designing efficient and reliable networks. In this guide, we will explore various network topologies and their characteristics.

Common Network Topologies

Here are some of the most common network topologies:

• Star Topology

  • In a star topology, all nodes are connected to a central hub.
  • This topology is easy to manage and troubleshoot.
  • 

    Star Topology

• Bus Topology

  • In a bus topology, all nodes are connected to a single communication line.
  • This topology is simple and cost-effective.
  • 

    Bus Topology

• Ring Topology

  • In a ring topology, each node is connected to two other nodes, forming a closed loop.
  • This topology provides a high level of fault tolerance.
  • 

    Ring Topology

• Mesh Topology

  • In a mesh topology, each node is connected to every other node.
  • This topology offers high reliability and fault tolerance.
  • 

    Mesh Topology

• Tree Topology

  • In a tree topology, nodes are arranged in a hierarchical structure.
  • This topology is suitable for large networks.
  • 

    Tree Topology

• Hybrid Topology

  • A hybrid topology combines two or more topologies.
  • This allows for flexibility in network design.
  •
