advantages of network topology |
 |
 |
| 1. failure of one device usually does not affect the rest of the bus network. 2. bus networks are inexpensive and easy to install. 3. computers and other devices can be attached and detached at any point on the bus without disturbing the rest of the network. |
1. all computers have equals access to the resources in the network. 2. the uses of token passing enables all devices in a ring topology to share the network resources fairly. 3. cable faults are easily located, making troubleshooting easier. |
1. if one device ( pc / printer ) fails, only that device is affected. 2. devices (pc / printer ) can be added to or removed from network with little or no disruption. 3. easy to troubleshoot and isolate problem. |
