Bus Topology
star topology,bus topology,ring topology,mesh topology etc...
Star topology is one of the oldest topology
bus topology
mesh topology
Sure, the machines have to be connected somehow. A star topology is quite common.
Bus Topology
It is multipoint but it leases the capacity of the line specially. So in a sense it behaves like a point to point but a multipoint.
In a multipoint topology the hub can send to one or more systems based on an address. Frame Relay is the most common technology to implement this scheme, and it is typically used as a WAN technology. All the remote connection points are connected to a single Frame Relay switch or router port, and communication between sites is managed by that central point. In hub and spoke, all spokes or only one spoke hears a given transmission. In point to multipoint, any number of remote stations can be accessed.
It is Point-to-Point connection because multipoint connection needs more than two end points.
there are two types of connection network: Point-to-Point Connection and Multipoint Connection
Star topology
It's used for Star topology.
bus topology
The term topology means the configuration of network communication through net connection.
