Level 3 - Network Topologies

What is the primary difference between physical topology and logical topology in a network?

• a) Physical topology is about how devices are connected, while logical topology describes the flow of data between devices.
• b) Logical topology is about how devices are connected, while physical topology describes the flow of data between devices.
• c) Physical topology refers to the speed of the network, while logical topology refers to the network's reliability.
• d) Logical topology refers to the speed of the network, while physical topology refers to the network's reliability.
