hi
i am not sure but its ring topoloy
the rest of the network is unaffected but if a channel fails then the whole network fails.
The topology used in a network that connects all its computers and communication devices to a central server is called a star topology. In this configuration, each device is connected individually to a central hub or switch, allowing for efficient data transmission and easy management. If one connection fails, it does not affect the rest of the network, making it a reliable choice for many setups. However, if the central hub fails, the entire network becomes inoperable.

if any computer fails it doesn't affect the entire system
yes
The physical network topology that has the inherent weakness of a single point of failure is the star topology. In a star topology, all devices are connected to a central hub or switch. If this central device fails, the entire network becomes inoperable, as all communication relies on it. This makes the network vulnerable to disruptions if the hub experiences any issues.
Any connection failure in a bus topology will result in the network becoming unusable due to signal bounce in the affected cable.
A linear network has multiple fail points. If when computers are connected in a bus style line, a failure in one part of the cable means that every computer past that failure point no longer has connectivity. A star configuration has redundancy- if one cable fails, no other computers are affected. Star topology also can also shorten the distance between computers, making the network a bit faster.
In a network setup with 10 computers, 2 printers, and 1 scanner, a star topology is generally preferred. This is because it allows for easier management and troubleshooting; if one device fails, it does not affect the entire network. Additionally, star topology provides better performance and scalability, making it easier to add or remove devices without disrupting the network. Mesh topology, while more robust due to multiple connections, is often more complex and costly to implement for this scale.
the ring topology is a network within which all computer are connected like in a circle. The ring topology data transmission is depending on a token. it's a programme given to a computer to allow it to communicate with others computers. it's useful but if one computer goes down, the topology is down too.
In a star topology, there is a central controller or hub. This hub acts as a central point for all network devices, allowing them to communicate with each other through it. If one device fails, it does not affect the others, making troubleshooting easier. However, if the central hub fails, the entire network goes down.
If the server dies, the computers get unseen for each other. It isn't a good idea in every situation to leave the whole network to only 1 computer, because if it ets an error, your network is dead.
