Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What is a mesh topology and what does it do?
A
connect things through via close range connection
B
a long, weak cable connection to a slow internet
C
connects to the internet via satalites
D
high speed fiber optic connection
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A mesh topology provides redundant links across the network. If a break occurs in a segment of cable, traffic can still be rerouted using the other cables. This topology is rarely used because of the significant cost and work involved in having network components directly connected to every other component.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mesh topology is a type of network topology in which all devices in the network are interconnected. In a mesh topology, data can be transmitted by routing (sent the shortest distance) and flooding (sent to all devices). The two types of mesh topology are: Full mesh topology.

Detailed explanation-3: -In a full mesh network topology, each node is connected directly to all the other nodes. In a partial mesh topology, only some nodes connect directly to one another. In some cases, a node must go through another node to reach a third node. Every node in a full mesh network is directly connected to every other node.

Detailed explanation-4: -In a mesh topology there is no central connection point. Instead, each node is connected to at least one other node and usually to more than one. Each node is capable of sending messages to and receiving messages from other nodes. The nodes act as relays, passing on a message towards its final destination.

Detailed explanation-5: -A network with a complete mesh topology is one in which each node is directly linked to the other using a purpose-built network topology. The connection between nodes can be either local or over the internet. Full mesh topology networks have multiple benefits, including eliminating single points of failure.
