what is topology and its types in networking?

[pankaj]

Topology is way of connecting number of computers in a single network.

Type of Topology
Star
Bus
Mash
Ring
Tree
Hybrid

 

[arun]

topology are of six types . or meaning of topology is how to connect number of computers in the network.

 

[PariJain]

A topology is a usually schematic description of the arrangement of a network, including its nodes and connecting lines. Type of Networking are:
1. Bus Topology
2. Ring Topology
3. Star Topology
4. Mesh Topology
5. Hybrid Topology
6. Tree topology

Network topology is the agreement of the various aspects of a computer network. Basically, it is the topological framework of a network and may be portrayed actually or rationally. Actual topology is the positioning of the various aspects of a network.

 

[Martin smith]

Topology is a network arrangement technique. there are types of topologies
1. Bus Topology
2. Ring Topology
3. Tree Topology
4. Mesh Topology
5. Hybrid Topology
6. Star Topology

Network topology refers to the physical or logical layout of a network. It defines the way different nodes are placed and interconnected with each other. Alternately, network topology may describe how the data is transferred between these nodes.

There are two types of network topologies: physical and logical. Physical topology emphasizes the physical layout of the connected devices and nodes, while the logical topology focuses on the pattern of data transfer between network nodes.

[AngelaPender]

A network topology is just a way to represent the way network are interconnected.There are many physical topologies such as bus topology ,star topology,token ring,ring topology,tree topology and mesh topology.
