Networking Unit 1 Part 2 review

In a ring topology, how are the devices connected?

• In a straight line with each device connected to one other device

• In a circle with each device connected to two other devices

• In a star shape with each device connected to a central hub

• Randomly with no specific pattern

What must be done to add a new device in a ring topology?

• Connect it directly to the central hub

• Break the ring, taking down the entire network

• Simply plug it into any device

• Use a wireless connection

What happens if a break appears in a ring topology?

• The network continues to function normally

• The network will shut down

• Only the broken device stops working

• The network speed increases

What is a benefit of dual rings in a ring topology?

• They allow for faster data transmission

• They allow users to continue to transmit packets while the break is fixed

• They reduce the cost of network setup

• They eliminate the need for a central hub

What is a hybrid topology?

• A single type of network topology

• A combination of two or more topologies

• A topology that uses only wireless connections

• A topology that is only used in small networks

Which topologies are combined in the image to form the network?

• Star and mesh

• Ring and bus

• Tree and star

• Mesh and bus

What is a potential challenge of using hybrid topologies?

• They are always more expensive

• They are difficult to design and maintain

• They cannot be personalized for specific needs

• They only work with wired connections

What is a characteristic of a client-server network?

• Each machine controls its own usernames and passwords.

• A single server controls the network for all devices.

• All machines are both clients and servers.

• Each device operates independently.

Which of the following is an example of a client-server network?

• iPhone

• Bluetooth

• Gmail

• LAN party

In a peer-to-peer network, what is true about the machines?

• A single server controls all devices.

• Each machine controls its own usernames and passwords.

• Only one machine acts as the server.

• Machines cannot communicate directly.
