Detailed explanation-1: -To implement the mesh topology is expensive to maintain all the devices linked together. It is also expensive to buy all the cables and ethernet ports for connection. To keep all devices connected devices consume more power compared to other types of topology.
Detailed explanation-2: -This type of topology is very expensive as there are many redundant connections, thus it is not mostly used in computer networks. It is commonly used in wireless networks. Flooding or routing technique is used in mesh topology.
Detailed explanation-3: -Large Network − Bus topology is not suitable for large networks due to its limited cable length and potential for signal loss. Critical Network − Bus topology is not appropriate for critical networks because of its single point of failure. If the central cable fails, the entire network will be down.
