What is Star topology?

In star topology all the computers are connected through the central device which is called HUB. We can increase computers without stopping the network if one computer stops working others computers on network still work but if the HUB stops working then the network will be collapse.

What is Ring topology?

In ring topology all the computers are connected in a series and the last computer is connected to the first computer like a ring. The advantage is it is simple to connect but disadvantage is that if any link or computer is down the whole network will down.

How many topologies are there?
