Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -A star topology has several advantages over other network topologies, such as ease of installation and configuration, scalability and flexibility, high performance and low latency, high reliability and fault tolerance, and high security.
Detailed explanation-2: -Advantages of Star Topology In case of a device failure, the rest devices are not affected. Likewise, in the case of a security attack against an IoT device, only a single node is compromised, as endpoints operate independently of each other. Hence, star topologies offer better security than mesh networks.
