LAN and WAN LAN (Local Area Networks) are small networks which are contained in a single building or small area. WAN (Wide Area Networks) are larger networks over a wider geographical area. 1

This is sometimes called the Token-Ring network. A Token or Packet of data is passed around with the message. Each computer reads to see if the message is for them and if it isnt then it sends it on to the next computer. When it reaches its destination, the recipient sends a message back to the sender to tell it that the message has been safely received. 2 Ring

Ring Topology Advantages Uses the least amount of cabling and so is the cheapest and easiest to set up. Disadvantages This is the least secure as if one connection is lost, the whole network stops working. If all the data is not traveling in the same direction then Data Clashes can occur and data can be lost. If the data all moves in the same direction then it is slow and has to travel a long way to get to some computers.

Bus Topology A bus network has a single cable which all the computers and peripherals are attached to. When one computer sends a signal along the wire, all the computers on the network receive the information, but only the one the message is addressed to accepts the information. The rest disregard the message. A computer must wait until the bus is free before it can transmit a message.

Bus Topology Advantages The bus is simple, reliable in very small networks, easy to use, and easy to understand. It is easy to extend a bus. Disadvantages If the central cable is broken then the whole network stops working. Only one computer at a time can send a message; therefore, the number of computers attached to a bus network can significantly affect the speed of the network.

Star Topology In a star topology, all the cables run from the computers to a central location, where they are all connected by a device called a hub. There are two types of star network: – Broadcast star network – Broadcast star network – The hub sends the messages it receives from the computers to all the computers in the star and most of them ignore the message apart form the computer the message is addressed to. – Switched star network – Switched star network – The hub sends the message it receives only to the destination computer. 6

Star Topology Advantages It is the fastest type of network as each computer has its own dedicated line and so avoids Data Clashes If one cable is broken the rest of the network can still work without any delay. New computers can easily be added to the network without disrupting the service to anybody else. Disadvantages The network will stop working if the hub stops working. It is expensive to set up as it uses the most cabling.
