Network Topologies - TSV

Network topology is a concept that defines the physical and logical arrangement of nodes (devices) and links (connections) in computer networks. Major types include star, bus, ring, mesh, tree, and hybrid, each with different advantages and disadvantages. It significantly impacts network performance, reliability, security, and scalability, making the selection of appropriate topology essential for efficient network design.
