network topology

• Arranjo ou estrutura física e lógica dos nós, dispositivos e conexões em uma rede de computadores, que determina como os dados são transmitidos entre eles.

The arrangement or physical and logical layout of nodes, devices, and connections in a computer network, defining how data flows between them.

1. Physical or logical arrangementB2formal

   The arrangement of elements (links, nodes, etc.) in a computer network, defining how devices are connected and communicate.

   Topologia de rede

   • A star network topology connects all devices to a central hub.
   • The IT team redesigned the network topology to improve data flow.
   • Understanding network topology is essential for troubleshooting connectivity issues.

2. Types of network structuresB2formal

   Specific configurations like bus, ring, mesh, or hybrid that determine data transmission paths.

   Tipos de topologia de rede

   • A mesh network topology provides high redundancy by connecting each node to multiple others.
   • The bus topology was common in early local area networks.
   • Choosing the right network topology depends on cost and performance needs.
