Star, Mesh, Hybrid Topologies



Star, Mesh, Hybrid Topologies

Simply star, mesh and hybrid topologies describe how devices plug into each other. In your office how your switchers are connect to each other.


Mesh topologies


In this topology we can reduce latency and also we have redundancy inside our network. When you have full mesh you have ultimate number of options to reach to location. But in this topology you have to care about cost.



Hybrid topologies

In this topology every this connect to every thing in the network. You have high level redundancy. But switchers do broadcasting between the networks when it happen broadcast massage flow through the network. So prevent that introduce STP (Spanning Tree Protocol – we’ll discussed it in future.) temporally stop one redundant link. In this topology network automatically become a complex one

Star Topology


This topology is cost effective. If some device doesn’t need to talk to someone in the network this topology is the best. In this switch do all the distribution process.
