 Frank had founded Network Analysis Corporation (NAC), a company specializing in topological design based on his groundbreaking work at the Office of Emergency Preparedness (OEP).

In its simplest form, a star network consists of one central node, typically a switch or hub, which acts as a conduct to transmit messages. ]]> 2017-02-08 14:33:31 UTC https://padlet.com/elijahwatkins00/qsvm5mpfocal/wish/152469664 elijahwatkins00 https://padlet.com/elijahwatkins00/qsvm5mpfocal/wish/152471499 Disadvantages of a Star topology. Requires more cable length than a linear topology. If the hub, switch, or concentrator fails, nodes attached are disabled. More expensive than linear bustoplogies because of the cost of the hubs, etc.

ADVANTAGES ^.^ 
Easy to connect new nodes or devices. In star topology new nodes can be added easily without affecting rest of the network. Similarly components can also be removed easily.

  Centralized management. It helps in monitoring the network.

 Failure of one node or link doesn’t affect the rest of network. At the same time its easy to detect the failure and troubleshoot it.

Unlike Bus topology, where nodes were connected to central cable, here all the workstations are connected to central device with a point-to-point connection. So it can be said that every computer is indirectly connected to every other node by the help of “hub”.....Beautiful...just beautiful..

AAAAAAAAAAND...


There also exists a concept of extended star topology, where even though the network is based on physical star topology, it has one or more repeaters between the central hub and peripheral nodes, which extend the maximum transmission distance beyond what is supported by the transmission power of the central hub.
