Chapter 3: Network Topology

Whay is Network Topology?

• The physical location of the nodes (Computer and devices) in a communication network
• The arrangements of computer base on the shape of the architecture
• The layout of the nodes (computers and devices) in a communications network
• The characteristic  or design that is used when building a communication network

The actual arrangements of cables and nodes on a network is called ___________

• Geographical Topology
• Network Topology
• Logical Topology
• Physical topology

The path that data travels between computers in a network is called  ___________

• Geographical Topology
• Network Topology
• Logical Topology
• Physical topology

What type of network topology shown in the picture?

• Bus topology
• Ring topology
• Star topology
• Tree topology

What is the correct description for the type of topology shown in the picture?

• All of the nodes in the network must be connected to each other for the network to work.
• The network must be position so that it looks like a star
• All the nodes must connect to a central cable that act like the backbone for the network
• All of the nodes in the network must be connected to a central communication device

Read the statement below base on the picture provided.
Find the false statement

• When one of the nodes in the network malfunction, the whole network fails.
• attaching and detaching nodes on this network is easy to do.
• If the centeral communication device fails, the whole network fails.
• This is the most expensive type of topology.

Base on the picture given, determined whether the statement below is TRUE or FALSE

"The centeral communication device on this network must be a Server."

• FALSE
• TRUE

What type of network topology shown in the picture?

• Bus topology
• Ring topology
• Star topology
• Tree topology

What is the correct description for the type of topology shown in the picture?

• All of the nodes in the network must be connected to each other for the network to work.
• All nodes must be connected to a centeral communication device
• All the nodes must connect to a central cable that act like the backbone for the network
• a cable forms a closed loop with all computers and devices arranged
  along the ring.

Read the statement below base on the picture provided.
Find the false statement

• When one of the nodes in the network malfunction, the whole network fails.
• The data is sent through the network using a token
• It is the cheapest form of network to be built
• The physical shape of the network must be in a form of a round ring
