LAN Topologies by Michal Mikláš STU: FacultyofElectricalEngeneering
Introduction Whatisa LAN? Whatistopology?
TopologyTypes • 1. Bus • 2. Star • 3. Point To Point • 4. Point to Multipoint • 5. Ring
BUS TOPOLOGY • single wire (coaxial), • physicalmediaisshared • onlyonecantransmit • alldeviceshearall communication • collisioncanoccur • moderninstallations usestar
STAR TOPOLOGY • themost commonnetworktopology • devicesconnected to a centralconnectionpoint • hub repalcedswitch
RING TOPOLOGY • usingpairedphysicalinterfaces • transmit in onedirectiononly • similarto bus • occasionallyused • highsecurity • hard to overhead
POINT TO POINT • oftenconnectionbetweentwodevices • end-to-endcommunicationspath. • onlytwodevices on theconnection
POINT TO MULTIPOINT • usuallyused in Wifinetworks • are used in school • connectsmultiplenetworklocationstogether
CONCLUSION Most usedtopologies: BUS, STAR BusBenefits:Disavantages • cheaphistorical • easy to make StarBenefits:Disavantages • fastcostly • universal
