FBLA network design

what is topology

• the movement of data between computers

• the study of computers

a kind of topology

• physical

• circle

• bus

• star

ping

• someone's connection to the server

• frame rate

• a way to transfer data

VTS

• asks a receiver if they want to accept info

• tells if computers are idle

• says yes or no to accepting info

RTS

• when timers are used to tell if a computer is idle

• asks a receiver if they want to accept info

• tells the sender of info yes or no

CTS

• when timers are used to tell if a computer is idle

• asks a receiver if they want to accept info

• tells RTS yes or no

mesh topology

• when all computers have a direct connection to each other

• when all the computers are connected on a single wire with back and forth movement of data regardless of physical wiring

• when data goes one way in a circle

• when all the computers are connected by a single server

Circle topology

• when all the computers are connected by a single server

• when all the computers are connected by a single server regardless of physical wiring

• when data goes one way in a circle

• when data goes one way in a circle regardless of physical wiring

Logical Bus topology

• when data goes one way in a circle

• when all the computers are connected by a single server regardless of physical wiring

• when data goes one way in a circle regardless of physical wiring

• when all the computers are connected on a single wire with back and forth movement of data regardless of physical wiring

Bus topology

• when all the computers are connected on a single wire with back and forth movement of data

• when all the computers are connected by a single server regardless of physical wiring

• when data goes one way in a circle
