Tree Topology allows for the expansion of an existing network
dual ring
The Active topology functionally allow you to make element inactive (and chnage them back active again).
The common network of bus topology is a network where clients are connected through cables called a bus. You can learn more about this at the Wikipedia. Once on the website, type "Bus network" into the search field at the top of the page and press enter to bring up the information.
The most common LAN topology is that of a "star." In a star topology, each computer, or "node", is connected to a central hub. This is more reliable than a more classical "ring" topology, because a node failing will not bring down the entire network. A bus topology is arguably more reliable, but has poorer performance.
yes, network topology does matter to design a network. as we know that topology is a structure of network. without a topology network cannot be designed. we have to consider which topology to use and what does each topology does. different topology have its different features. if you want most secure connection use full mesh topology
Mesh type of topology is the most reliable.
For a topology, the most common is a star topology.

Mesh topology is the most secure topology bcoz in mesh topology each device has a dedicated link to others .
BUS topology
star good luck on chapter 12!
A topology is the physical configuration of a network. Each network has their own particular type of topology, with the most common being LAN or WAN. Irregular topology is a common topology of LAN, where the information is sent through random connections between computers.
