The structure or network used to connect one computer to another can use cables or\u00a0<em>wireless<\/em>\u00a0(wireless).<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Functions of Computer Network Topology<\/h4>\n<p>A computer network topology serves to determine how each computer or host in a computer network can communicate with one another.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of Computer Network Topologies with Their Advantages and Disadvantages<\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Ring Topology<\/h4>\n<p>Topology\u00a0<em>ring<\/em>\u00a0or often called a ring topology, is a type of network topology used to connect one computer to another in a circular series shaped like a ring. Generally, this type of ring network topology only uses a LAN card so that each computer is connected.

Bus Topology<\/h4>\n<p>Bus topology is a simpler network topology. Generally, this network topology is used in cable-based network installations with\u00a0<em>coaxial<\/em>. Bus topology uses cable\u00a0<em>coaxial<\/em>\u00a0along the length of\u00a0<em>client nodes<\/em>\u00a0and connectors. The types of connectors used are BNC, Terminator, and TBNC.

Mesh Topology<\/h4>\n<p>A mesh topology is a topology that can be used for many routes. This network topology uses a single cable so that data transmission is faster without passing through a hub or switch.

Star Topology<\/h4>\n<p>A star topology is a star-shaped network topology that generally uses a hub or switch to connect clients. This computer network topology is the most widely used today because it has many advantages.

Tree Topology<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>A tree topology is a combination of bus and star topologies. Generally, a tree topology is used to interconnect hierarchies with different centers.

Peer to Peer Topology<\/h4>\n<p>A peer to peer topology is a very simple network topology because it connects only 2 computers. Generally, a peer to peer topology uses just one cable to connect the two computers so that they can share data with each other.

Linear Topology<\/h4>\n<p>A linear topology, often called a sequential bus topology, generally uses only one main cable to connect each connection point on every computer.

Hybrid Topology<\/h4>\n<p>A hybrid topology is a combination of several different topologies that form a new network. In other words, if two or more different topologies are connected in one network, that network topology forms a hybrid topology. Hybrid Topology Diagram:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" src=\"https:\/\/diskominfo.kuburayakab.go.id\/media_library\/posts\/post-image-1620619265919.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"50%\" height=\"50%\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantages<\/strong>\u00a0Hybrid Topology, among others:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Flexible.<\/li>\n<li>Adding other connections to this topology is very easy.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Disadvantages<\/strong>\u00a0Hybrid Topology, among others:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The installation and configuration process is fairly complicated.<\/li>\n<li>Managing a hybrid topology is very difficult.<\/li>\n<li>The cost of building this topology is quite high.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Well, that is more or less the explanation of Computer Network Topologies.
