In star-wired ring hybrid topology, a failure in one of the nodes of the main ring topology can lead to a breakdown of the entire hybrid network. What can be done to ensure the network does not fail in such a case?
- Adding more nodes to the ring topology
- Making the basic star topology to have additional nodes
- Adding additional star topologies onto the ring for further capacity
- Making the ring topology to be bidirectional
Making the ring topology to be bidirectional
What is a star-wired ring hybrid topology?
- It’s structured in different levels as a hierarchical tree
- It’s set of star topologies are connected by a ring topology as the adjoining topology
- It’s made up of a set of star topologies interconnected by a central bus topology
- It’s a four quadrant ring topology that’s interconnected with a hierarchical ring topology
It’s set of star topologies are connected by a ring topology as the adjoining topology
What is a single point of failure in a hybrid network topology?
- It is a situation where the interconnecting channel of a hybrid network topology fails
- It is a component of a hybrid network topology which causes a total network failure.
- It is a basic topology that has failed
- It is a situation where every basic topology of the Hybrid topology fails at the same time leading to packet loss
It is a basic topology that has failed
How are the inherent weaknesses of star, ring, and bus topologies addressed in a hybrid topology?
- The weaknesses cannot be overcome and must be addressed through coding processes
- When a combination of two or more of the basic topologies is made into a hybrid network topology, the weaknesses of a given topology is addressed by another
- When a combination of two or more basic topologies is made into a hybrid network topology, the weakness simply cease to exist
- There are no inherent weaknesses of basic topologies like star, ring, and bus topologies since they’ve already been addressed
When a combination of two or more of the basic topologies is made into a hybrid network topology, the weaknesses of a given topology is addressed by another
Which of the following is NOT a major reason why we should consider implementing a hybrid network topology as opposed to a basic topology?
- To accommodate future network growth
- To address the challenges of a specific network topology
- To conform to standard ISO requirements
- To isolate specific networks in the hybrid network
To conform to standard ISO requirements
