1.3.1 Networks and Topologies
What isa Net
network consists of two or more computers that are linked in order to share resource
How do networks help us
File sharing - you can easily share data between different users, or access it remotely if you keep it on other connected devices
Resource sharing - using network-connected peripheral devices like printers, scanners and copiers, or sharing software between multiple users, saves money.
What is a topology?
A network topology is the physical and logical arrangement of nodes and connections in a network.
Types of topologies.
Star network topology
topology for a Local Area Network (LAN) in which all nodes are individually connected to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch
Mesh network topology
a network configuration where devices are interconnected in a decentralized manner
Ring networkpology
a type of network configuration where devices are connected in a circular manner, forming a closed loop
Tree network topology
a structure where devices are connected hierarchically
The point-to-poitopolog
a wire or other connection that links only two computers or circuits
Hybrid network topology
a network structure that combines two or more different types of topologies, such as star, ring, bus, or mesh
The butoology
a type of network topology in which all devices are connected to a single cable called a "bus."
Facts about networks and topologies.
Network topology is the arrangement of the elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a communication network
Network topology can be used to define or describe the arrangement of various types of telecommunication networks, including command and control radio networks, industrial fieldbusses and computer networks.

What is network hardware
Network hardware is defined as a set of physical or network devices that are essential for interaction and communication between hardware units operational on a computer network.
Switches
A network switch forwards data between devices
Nodes
Any device that can be added to a network
Hubs
Routers
