In a star topology only the failed system would have a problem, unless the device was the network connectivity device (on a LAN).
In a WAN, if the building was connected through the central building and the central building had a problem then all buildings would be affected. If it isn't the central connection point then only the building with the problem would be affected.

What are the disadvanteges of a star topology?
If the center device(hub) is failed, the total network is dead.
What is the network topology that has a server in the middle?
Star topology.
What is the system that connects computers to one central controlling computer called?
It is a Client/Server system. The most common topology for this is a Star topology.
Which topology is the most commonly used server network topology?
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.
What is the most popular Ethernet topology?
The "star" topology is the most common.
What topology is easiest to modify?
Star topology
Which network topology do nodes act as repeaters?
Star Topology, where Hubs can act as repeaters.
Which is the oldest LAN topology?
Star topology is one of the oldest topology
What is the largest type of network topology?
bus topology.
Why is the star topology the best topology?
Scalability and reliabillty of star topology makes it the best, easy to remove or add a device.
Ring topology and star topology?
There are number of LAN technologies and each technology is classified into a category according to its topology , two such topologies are star and ring topology. In star topology ,The hub accepts data from a sender and delivers it to receiver, there is no security in star topology . In Ring topology Computers are connected in a circle- the first computer is cabled with the second computer.
What are the types of hybrid network?
Ring Topology, Mesh Topology, Bus Topology, Star Topology
