2. BUS TOPOLOGY
IF IN A BUS TOPOLOGY A “COMPUTER K” WANTS TO SEND TO SEND DATA TO “COMPUTER Q” IT C
BE AS.
K
S
Q P
Printer
DATA
IF Computer P and computer S both want to use the printer, both issue a command Print, but it will collide &
Both signal will be destroyed at the node and network will be busy for a while
PRINT A
PRINT BPrint B b is printed
Print A
a is printed
3. Ring Topology
In Ring Topology
if computer A
wants to send to
computer D it
would like
C
A
B
D
DATA
Each Computer checks weather
this data belong to it or not ,if
value=True than data is
downloaded otherwise move
further
If C downs, the network
will be destroyed b/w all
computers
4. Star Topology
In Star topology if computer M wants to send data to both N & F , the data will send to switch and then send
to the destination
M
F
N
K
DATA

DATA
If Central Hub fails then whole network goes down
5. Mesh Topology If any computer wants to interact with
any other computer in a network it can
directly interact with the other, i.e. all
computer are directly connected to each other
