Computer Networking Topologies

The layout in which multiple computers as well as other relevant devices like nodes, hubs, links etc, are interconnected with each other is simply termed as computer network topology. Topology is the very primary phase to initiate a healthy network and to understand the working scenario of the layout, so before heading to initiate a network, you must consult some computer network Los Angeles to avail hale services.

Network topologies can be categorized into two broad spans, physical and logical. Physical topologies reflect the physical layout of the interconnected devices involved in a computer network setup. Now we can take examples of LAN – Local Area Network, WAN – Wide Area Network, or even a homemade small network as a physical layout of a computer network. While logical topology depicts how really data and information are to be transferred into physical design. In other words we can also express that the style in which signals are transmitted into communication media used in a network.

Apart from these network categories there are seven different types of topologies including point-to-point Topology, Bus Topology, Star Topology, Ring Topology, Tree Topology, Mesh Topology, and Hybrid Topology.  Though the names might be unusual to you people but not to feel troubled at all as you can get your computer network just a prompt away from computer network Los Angeles.
