Discover the World of Network Topologies: Star

Welcome to this month's edition of [Your Newsletter Name]! In this issue, we will delve into the world of network topologies by exploring three popular types: Star, Mesh, and Hybrid. As the foundation of any computer network, understanding these topologies is crucial to ensure optimal performance and reliability in your network infrastructure.

1. Star Topology In a star topology, all devices (nodes) connect to a central device, usually a hub or switch, forming a star-like structure. The central device manages data transmission and directs it to the appropriate destination.

Pros:

• Easy to install and manage.
• Adding or removing devices does not disrupt the network.
• Failure of one node does not affect the entire network.

Cons:

• The central device is a single point of failure.
• Requires more cabling than other topologies.
• Limited scalability due to the dependency on the central device.

Next will explain about Mesh and Hybrid topologies hence stay tuned.
