(MWF) BSCS - IV Network topology Network topology is the arrangement of the various elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer[1][2] or biological network.[3]. Essentially, it is the topological structure of a network, and may be depicted physically or logically. Physical topology refers to the placement of the network's various components, including device location and cable installation, while logical topology shows how data flows within a network, regardless of its physical design

organizations computer network are kept to a minimum so that highly sensitive data will continue to remain protected. However, recent reports from the CIO suggest that there has been a small amount of malicious activity reported on the network. The CIO is requesting I look into the current network infrastructure and make necessary changes to the network so that the system remains free from the threat and vulnerability of future malicious activity that would impact the organizations network. Attacks

Network Topologies Mesh topology, in a mesh network devices are connected with many redundant interconnections between network nodes. Every node has a connection to every other node in the network. There are two types of mesh topologies. Full mesh topology occurs when every node has the circuit connecting to every other node in the network. Full mesh is very expensive to implement but yields the greatest amount of redundancy, so in the event that one of those nodes fails; network traffic can be

the two networks will be merged together. The Client is in need of a Vendor to analyze, prepare, guide and assess the merger of the two networks. NotReal, Ltd. will provide these services to Fiction Company by examining the health of the existing network, preparing the network for the merger, and overseeing the actual merger. (Oppenheimer, 2011) Approach NotReal, Ltd. will gather specific information in order to characterize the existing network and determine the health of the network. This

different machines but there has always been the question of how they are used. For a network they are used by using a line or topology to connect all depending on where you are working there are a number of different kinds of topology such as bus, star and mesh but there are 3 that are more commonly used such as a hierarchical star, bus and ring network topology. The hierarchical star is like a regular star topology except that there are multiple server box’s and also uses switches to help maintain

I have been ask to produce a computer network proposal for social club STP Sports. In nowadays the role of networking ( either wired or wireless ) are very important. The best functions are: • File Sharing- This gives you much more flexibility, than share memory sticks/floppy drives. You can share many different files ie photos, music, documents • Printer Sharing- Once is connected to the networks, you can easily set up all of the computers to share one printer. This save a lot of money, because

February 8, 2014 February 8, 2014 LAN Topologies Assignment Case Project 2-1 You have been hired to upgrade a network of 50 computers currently connected to 10 Mbps hubs. This long-overdue upgrade is necessary because of poor network response time caused by a lot of collisions occurring during long file transfers between clients and servers. How do you recommend upgrading this network? What interconnecting devices will you use, and what benefit will you get from using these devices? Write a
