The Hierarchical Star Topology consists of all the computers in a specific network being connected to a single main point, like a server or hub, which in turn, would be located in an equipment room or centralize location. With the Star topology, hubs are used to facilitate the topology. The drawback to this is, there is about a 20%- 30% waste in unused ports and a company is paying for more ports that is can or will use. Another drawback to this topology is the entire network is reliant on the hub

LAN Topologies IT/240 Intro to LAN Technologies 4/29/2014 Farooq Afzal Case 3-1 In my opinion a client/server system with an extended star topology would be the best choice for Old-Tech Corporation. I would replace the 10 Mbps Ethernet cord with an 100 Mbps Ethernet cord to ensure a faster more reliable connection. The extended star topology will allow each computer to have access to shared files and the administrator can delegate which computer has access to which information within the

Explain if ring topology is a good choice for WANs. ANS: WAN is a computer networking technology used to transmit data over long distances, and between different LANs, MANs. Thus, at first glance, we can say ring topology may NOT be a good choice for WAN because of the following reasons: The communication delay of ring topology is directly proportional to number of nodes in the network. It will result in serious delay if ring topology is being chosen to implement large networks such as WAN. Moving

the Servers they will use mesh topology because if one server goes wrong the other can work it out, very cheap to use and transfer data without any delay .So for server I recommend mesh topology for the 10 servers. If don’t to pay for another network then they can use Star network but in this case they can use fast topology if something goes wrong on hub all the devices can not to internet. But for the room that storing desktop computers, they will use star topology because

3.2. Network topology 3.2.1. Network topology in general There are many network topologies which are point to point which is stranded lan between 2 or more pcs using cat 5 or 6 cables to connect them. Bus used coax and connected a series of computers on a shared line but if devise fails they all fail also this topology is no longer used since the introduction of Cat 5 and higher cables. There is ring topology where computers are connected to each other and a virtual token is used to allow pcs to

functions of the arp command from displaying arp current entries by interrogating the current protocol data to deleting the host specified by inet_addr. From my research of arp prompt is used to hover the shadows of most networks. And it defines the exchanges between network interfaces connected to an Ethernet media segment in order to map an IP address to a link layer address on demand(Linux, 2011).

Topologies and Network Technology NTC/361 Monday, August 8, 2011 Thomas Krawczyk Topologies and network technology In every project, it is important to have a goal, and that goal should be the foundation on which a project team spring into action. The foundation should involve an infrastructural plan, and the usability of the components of the infrastructure. A project plan, as in any other plan, should outline the premise of the project and answer some basic questions like why
