Linear Bus Topology
Linear Bus Topology is a type of network topology in which each device is connected one after the other in a sequential chain (shown right). In this case, the bus is the network connection between the devices, and if any link in the network chain is severed, all network transmission is halted.
Star Topology
A star topology is a topology for a Local Area Network (LAN) in which all nodes are individually connected to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch. A star takes more cable than e.g. a bus, but the benefit is that if a cable fails, only one node will be brought down.
Ring Topology
A ring topology network is a network topology in which each node connects to exactly two other nodes, forming a single continuous pathway for signals through each node - a ring. Data travels from node to node, with each node along the way handling every packet.
Mesh Topology
Mesh Topology is a type of networking where all nodes cooperate to distribute data amongst each other.
Hybrid Topology
A hybrid topology is a type of network topology that uses two or more different network topologies. These topologies include a mix of bus topology, mesh topology, ring topology, star topology, and tree topology.
