This sounds like a homework question.....hmmmm.
Anyway- if there's a break in a bus topology, the nodes that are downstream from the break are cut-off from the rest of the network.
In a ring topology, the nodes on both sides of the break will loop the path (self-healing) back towards the ring, so every node is still communicating with each other.
What else can I help you with?
What network topology connects to a trunk cable?
Bus Topology.
Which networking topology is difficult to reconfigure and a break in it disables the entire network?
The networking topology that is difficult to reconfigure and where a break can disable the entire network is the bus topology. In this configuration, all devices are connected to a single central cable, or "bus," which carries data signals. If there is a break or failure in the bus, it can disrupt communication for all devices connected to it, making troubleshooting and reconfiguration more challenging compared to other topologies.
Where bus topology used?
Bus topology is used on a LAN, or a Local Area Network. It is the cable to which the nodes connect, and it is also known as a backbone.
What hardware does a bus topology need?
A bus topology needs a trunk cable, which is a high speed central cable to which all the nodes can be connected. If the trunk cable breaks down, however, the whole network comes to a halt.
The bus cable to which computers on the Ethernet is connected?
The bus cable to which computers on the Ethernet is connected is called the trunk. If the trunk breaks, a bus topology is completely disrupted.
Cat 3 bus or star topology?
UTP cable would not usually be used in a bus topology. It is very common (even at that low speed) for a star.
What happens when a bus topology wire fails?
In a bus topology, all devices are connected to a single central cable, or bus. If this wire fails, all devices downstream of the break lose their connection to the network, resulting in a communication failure for those devices. However, devices upstream of the failure can still communicate with each other. This vulnerability makes bus topologies less reliable compared to other network topologies like star or ring.
Which network topology are connected to the same cable?
The network topology where all devices are connected to the same cable is known as a bus topology. In this setup, all nodes share the same communication line, allowing data to be transmitted along the cable. While bus topology is simple and cost-effective, it can lead to performance issues and difficulties in troubleshooting, as a failure in the main cable can disrupt the entire network.
Which topology connects all computers in sequence on a single cable?
bus topography
Cables used in a star bus topology?
Star topology is like the network is done by easily adding another network and the most common cable is used unshielded twisted pair cable. For the star topology purpose, Cat5 and Cat6 cable is used because it is an unshielded and shielded twisted pair cable.
What will happen when a single cable is at fault in any topology?
Mesh topology- a cable at fault not affect others. Ring topology- a cable at fault, only affect side by side, If main cable at fault ,whole system shut down. Star topology- a cable at fault, others are not affected. If Hub at fault, whole system shut down. Bus topology- main cable at fault, system will shut down. a cable at fault,will not affect others.
Which LAN topology involves the network cable forming a single bus to which every workstation is attached?
The LAN topology that involves the network cable forming a single bus to which every workstation is attached is called the bus topology. In this setup, all devices share a single communication line, and data travels in both directions along the bus. The main advantage of bus topology is its simplicity and ease of installation, but it can be prone to collisions and performance issues as more devices are added. Additionally, if the main cable fails, the entire network goes down.
