Which of the following can best be used to determine the topology of a network and discover unknown devices?
Network mapper
Does the network map utility use a new protocol called link layer topology discovery to discover information about the network and the devices attached to it?
true
What is the arrangement of computer on the network?
The arrangement of computers on a network is called topology. It describes how the individual computers are connected to each other and to the network.examples of topology are Star topology, ring topology, mesh topology, bus topology.
Deine the topology and explain the advantage and disadantage of bus star and ring topology?
Topology is the structure that describes how devices in a Network are connected.Bus Topology: Directly connects all devices to network i.e utilises a single Physical medium for Data transmission between devices.Star Topology: Connects all devices in network through a Central Network connecting device such as Hubs & Switches.Advantage of Bus Topology is that less connecting cable is used.Advantage of Star Topology is that Network can function in case one or more devices fail.Disadvantage of Bus Topology is that whole Network goes down if one device fails.Disadvantage of Star Topology is that it requires physical connecting medium from Central device to the connecting device i.e more expensive.
What is the difference between network and topology?
Group of devices connected together forms a Network & structure (design) in which they interconnect is called Topology.
At a minimum a network topology diagram will include which components?
Connections between devices Devices
What are network connecting devices?
A device with wireless connectivity or Ethernet ports, which otherwise connects a series of devices in a network topology.
What is the difference between technology and topology?
Topology is the actual layout of the network, for instance, where the routers and other devices are located. That would be the networks topology.
Network topology will allow all devices to continue to communicate with each other should a network cable fail?
Yes...depending on the type of topology.
Which type of network map shows the location of hosts network devices and media?
physical topology
Which topology uses a central device for point-to-point connections to other devices?
A star topology; a network topology in which endpoints on a network are connected to a common central device by point-to-point links.
What is the physical topology?
It means how the items (for instance, devices in a network) are actually connected.
