Document Summary
This type of topology requires a lot of cables and is, therefore, expensive. Many of the connections are also redundant since there are several different paths for data to travel from one node to another. A tree topology combines characteristics of linear bus and star topologies. It consists of groups of star-configured workstations connected to a linear bus backbone cable (see fig. Treetopologies allow for the expansion of an existing network, and enable schools to configure a network to meet their needs. Hybrid topology is combination of two or more different topologies (e. g. , bus, star, ring, etc. The hybrid network is based on both peer-to-peer and; client-server relationship. A hybrid topology is always produced when two different basic network topologies are connected. This network topology can be wired or wireless. Hybrid network topology allows the network. (paper 3.
