To access a network, some type of network card must be installed in the computer.
there are many separate points of access that pose a security risk

For two or more connected networks you can use a bridgeto connect them all together.It depends on the two networks. A bridge can only connect two networks of the same type (eg Ethernet or Token-Ring), that also use the same layer 3 network address (eg IP subnet or IPX network #, or AppleTalk network #).A "gateway" device can connect two dissimilar types that share a network address, and a router can connect two networks of different network addresses whether or not they have the same network type.

CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access / Collision Detect)
A star-wired bus is a hybrid topology (more than 1 type of topology). There is no particular access method that requires or relies on that type of hybrid.

A ring topology graph will normally indicate the details of a network's structure. In a ring topology graph, information on individual machines will be shown and indicated. This information will include a Media Access Control address, as well as the Internet Protocol address for a network communicating device. Ring topology graphs are meant for understanding the layout of any given network design.

One access method may be preferred over another in a network based on factors such as the type of data being transmitted, the number of users, and the required performance. For instance, Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detection (CSMA/CD) is often used in Ethernet networks where the traffic load is moderate, while Token Ring may be favored in scenarios requiring a deterministic response time. Additionally, in wireless networks, methods like Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) might be preferred for efficient time allocation among users. Ultimately, the choice depends on the specific requirements for efficiency, reliability, and latency in the network environment.
Both Token Ring and FDDI use the concept of a ring topology structure. However, Token Ring is used in a LAN, and FDDI is used in a MAN.Token Ring is implemented with copper cable (UTP cable) and FDDI uses Fiber Optic cable.Finally, the protocols are very different between the two. FDDI uses a synchronous type of transmission, where Token Ring uses an actual token (a 3 character packet) to control who has access to transmit or receive on the network. FDDI does not use this technique.
* void - This is a return type - or, more correctly, specifies that a method has no return type.* protected - This is an access modifier. It says that the only classes that can call this method are subclasses and classes in the same package.* int - This is a value type (or return type).* main - This is the name of the method.
