list four types of network topologies used in wire based networks?

Where the ring topology is commonly used?
Ring topology is commonly used in local area networks (LANs), particularly in environments that require predictable performance, such as in schools and small businesses. It was historically prevalent in token ring networks, where data packets travel in a unidirectional or bidirectional manner around the ring, minimizing collisions. Although less common today due to the rise of star and mesh topologies, ring topology can still be found in certain industrial applications and metro area networks (MANs). Its structured layout allows for easier troubleshooting and management of network traffic.
Repeaters are typically used on what type of networks?
Either a Bus topology or Wireless repeating, depends on how the question is stated...
Does Packet Collisions occur in Token Ring Networks?
No, unless the ring is broken then collision can occur
What has the author Jesper Nilausen written?

What method do ring networks use to avoid data collisions?
Token
Is FDDI a ring netwok?
FDDI is a dual-ring structure, usually found in MANs (metropolitan area networks). Although it has a physical ring structure it is not the same as a token ring network.
Which two of the following are disadvantages to using token ring networks rather than Ethernet networks?
They are more expensive and are slower than Ethernet.
What topology is a passive topology?
Ring topology is the passive topology in computer networks
In the ring topology what happens if one of the stations is unplugged?
Theoretically, in a ring topology, unplugging one station, interrupts the ring. However, most ring networks use a mechanism that bypasses the station; the ring can continue its operation.
