Topologies
Bus
-
A bus topology is a topology for a Local Area Network LAN in which all the nodes are connected to a single cable. The cable to which the nodes connect is called a backbone. If the backbone is broken, the entire network fails.
-
-
Star
-
A star topology is a topology for a Local Area Network in which all nodes are individually connected to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch. A star takes more cable than e.g. a bus, but the benefit is that if a cable fails, only one node will be brought down.

Mesh
-
A mesh topology is a network setup where each computer and network device is interconnected with one another. This topology setup allows for most transmissions to be distributed even if one of the connections goes down. It is a topology commonly used for wireless networks.

Ring
-
-
-
A ring topology is a network configuration where device connections create a circular data path. Each networked device is connected to two others, like points on a circle. Together, devices in a ring topology are referred to as a ring network.

DNS servers translate domain names into IP addresses, making it possible for DNS clients to reach the origin server.
