the ring, stopping at each

transmit data, it adds the
data as well as the
destination address to the
frame.
Introduction to Computer Networks
Ring Topology
The frame then continues around
the ring until it finds the destination
node, which takes the data out of
the frame.
Single ring All the devices on
the network share a single cable
Dual ring The dual ring
topology allows data to be sent in
both directions.
Physical Topology
Star
Connects all cables to a central
point of concentration
Usually a hub or switch at center
Extended Star
Links stars by linking hubs or
switches
Mesh
Each host is connected to all
other hosts
No breaks, ever!
