A star topology is a type of mathematical topology. Mathematical topology is essentially geometry without concern for distance. It asks questions such as for a given shape, (in the abstract sense) "what connects to what," "is it possible to reach point x from point y without passing through point z," and "are these two points connected at all?" A star topology is a type of topology where all the points (for example, computers in a computer network) are connected to a central point, but not directly to each other. Go to the following address to see several types of network topologies, including a star topology. http://scilnet.fortlewis.edu/tech/Network/Topologies.htm

Star topology.


Which topology is the most commonly used server network topology?

The most common LAN topology is that of a "star." In a star topology, each computer, or "node", is connected to a central hub. This is more reliable than a more classical "ring" topology, because a node failing will not bring down the entire network. A bus topology is arguably more reliable, but has poorer performance.

Difference between star topology bus topology?

in bus topology computers are connected with each other by a wire in a approximately strait manner..and if one computer stops working the whole network will stop. while in star topology every computer is connected with the host computer & much wire is require..and if any client computer tops working it will not effect the whole network.----ravi singh chauhan...7275974787

Ring topology and star topology?

There are number of LAN technologies and each technology is classified into a category according to its topology , two such topologies are star and ring topology. In star topology ,The hub accepts data from a sender and delivers it to receiver, there is no security in star topology . In Ring topology Computers are connected in a circle- the first computer is cabled with the second computer.
