A star is a central 'hub' to which 'satellite' locations are connected. There is no direct communication between two satellites except through the hub.
If you are referring to topologies, then the architectures are: bus ring star mesh hybrid
Network Topology decides how Devices on a Network will be interconnected. General used Topologies are BUS, RING & STAR Topologies.
The complex combination of pure topologies is called a Hybrid. Examples of hybrid are star ring network and star bus network.

Star topologies. Sometimes combined topologies are used of which i have no idea!! :P
