Sure, the machines have to be connected somehow. A star topology is quite common.
Bus topology
In a multipoint topology the hub can send to one or more systems based on an address. Frame Relay is the most common technology to implement this scheme, and it is typically used as a WAN technology. All the remote connection points are connected to a single Frame Relay switch or router port, and communication between sites is managed by that central point. In hub and spoke, all spokes or only one spoke hears a given transmission. In point to multipoint, any number of remote stations can be accessed.
Any connection failure in a bus topology will result in the network becoming unusable due to signal bounce in the affected cable.
If five devices arranged in a mesh topology so we will have 10 links and 4 I/O ports in each hardware device. If any link goes down from them so it will be easy to find out which one is down and it won't effect on other links. But a bulk of wires and can create problem in re-installation and re-configuration.
Any topology can be used for a peer-to-peer network. The easiest is probably a star topology but it doesn't have to be.
In point-set topology, the properties of the set S are:X and ∅ belongs to the set S.The intersection of any subsets belongs to the set S.The union of any subsets belongs to the set S.For instance:Let τ = {X,∅}. Then, it's the topology. We call that the trivial or discrete topology. If the set is indiscrete topology, then it contains infinitely many elements!
star topology
This is false, topology does not have any representation in the environment. Topology is a study of mathematical shapes and spaces. It focuses on their constant deformations.
Star topology is good because in star topology if any computer has some problem then all computer not disturb and continue their working
The advantage is in fault detection; in a bus topology any break in any wire segment would cause the entire LAN to fail. With a star topology, a break in any wire segment only affects the one client connected to the network.
Networking is to access the network via the internet or by any kind of connectivity that involves, or requires a connection to do so. Network is the actual set up or topology of the computers.
Yes , it is required, any water base lubricant on the gasket inside the fitting is required before final connection.
The bus topology is one of the four main topology types for networking. It allows systems to be connected in a straight line without any other network connectivity devices. As a result, it is easy to construct and needs very little in the way of configuration, and is inexpensive compared to other topologies. The main result of any topology is to connect clients together in order to share resources.
