Star topology

Star topology is a specific kind of network topology in which all of the various devices in the network are connected to a Central Hub.

It can use twisted pair, Optical Fibre or coaxial cable for connnected  through root node which acts as server for all other nodes.

Advantages of tree topology:

• Easy to add and remove nodes.
• It can be use for large networks.
• Central hub can be upgrade easly.
• Easy to find problems.
• Fast performance and few nodes and low traffic consation.

Disadvantages of Star Topology:

• A lot of maintenance is needed.
• Backbone forms the point of failure.
• Expensive to use.
• Performance is based on the hub that is it depends on its capacity

• Bus topology 
• Mesh topology
• Ring topology 
• Tree topology 
• Hybrid topology
• Network Topology
