Zorluk: KolayNetwork Topologies and Types

A small business owner is setting up a local network in a new office space. Every desktop computer in the office connects directly to a central Ethernet switch using an individual network cable. Which physical network topology does this deployment represent?

  1. Star topologyCevap
  2. B
    Bus topology
  3. C
    Ring topology
  4. D
    Mesh topology

Cevap

Star topology
The star topology is characterized by connecting all individual network nodes back to a single central connecting device, such as a network switch or hub. If a single endpoint cable fails, only that device is disconnected from the network.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the physical connectivity described in the scenario
Identified that each host device connects independently to a central Ethernet switch
Determining node-to-central-device connectivity points directly to physical layout characteristics
2
Match the layout characteristics to standard physical network topologies
A central connectivity hub with point-to-point host runs is defined as a star topology
Star topology is defined by all endpoints connecting individually to a central distribution device like a switch or hub
