Topology

While geometry is primarily concerned with the mathematical properties of spatial objects, topology is concerned with the mathematical properties of those objects under continuous deformations. Please post all questions about topological subjects like homeomorphisms, manifolds, convergence, and connectedness, as well as their broad applications in computing, physics, and graph theory, into this category.

Advantages and disadvantages of tree network topology?

Some advantages of tree network topology include easy to set up and extend. It is also inexpensive. Its disadvantages, on the other hand, include limit on central cable length and number of nodes.

What is meant by the term securing your perimeter network security?

your perimeter network is the network you operate such as you have the internet and your network your network is your perimeter

In computer terms what does TOPOLOGY stand for?

Topology refers to the way equipments are connected one to another. For example, in a star topology all machines are connected through a central connector (a hub or switch), in a full mesh every equipment is connected to every other equipment, etc.

Why has the ring topology become obsolete?

These days each desktop computer has a separate internet address bypassing the need to have everything sent through a ring of computers or token ring system. The internet is based on a form of interlinked computers that means information sent from one computer find its way through whatever links it needs to another computer regardless of where those computers are.

What kind of wiring is commonly used in a bus topology?

A bus topology for a LAN will typically use coaxial cable, either 10Base5 (thicknet) or 10base2 (thin-net) copper wiring.

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.

How does Amazon.com exploit the network effect?

Amazon.com take that effect into account when they use buyer recommendations as the selling point for their products.

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 internate?

With internalization, one solidifies his or her own beliefs and values in terms of morality as opposed to those of society's as a whole. This may involve self hypnosis or the analyzing a situation in a way that allows the person to feel they are correct in doing so. Internization is the opposite of externalization.

What common network can communicate even if they have different network topologies?

It depends; if topplogy is intended in terms of Local Area Network (LAN), most Ethernet LANs use the same topology which is hub and spoke, where Ethernet switch(es) act as the hub and the spokes are hosts (PC's, servers, printers, IP phones, etc.). If topology is meant in terms of different technologies, e.g. Interconnecting an Ethernet network to a SONET or MPLS network, then a router is required between the two. Another possibility is transporting for instance Ethernet traffic over TDM (SONET or T1/T3) circuits. In such case the Ethernet frames are encapsulated at one end of the circuit using protocols such as GFP, PPP OR HDLC and traffic is de-encapsulated at the other end. Specialized bridges are capable of that, without requiring any IP routing.

Can a switch be used for star topology?

Yes, in fact, that is a common way to set up a network.

What do logical topologies describe?

A logical topology shows how a network is configured logically rather than physically. The main difference is that you could have 10 routers, 25 switches, and 5,000 computers in a logical topology and it doesn't matter where they are on the screen, it matters how they are connected to one another.

Which topology is the best for accounting?

If money are involved you better have a reliable network. For accounting I would recommend hybrid type of network. The best combination is mesh + star. It will provide you redundancy as well as it will not be as expensive and complicated as pure mesh.
