Detailed explanation-1: -A star network is a local area network (LAN) topology in which all nodes–personal computers (PCs), workstations or other devices–are directly connected to a common central computer that is often referred to as a hub. Therefore, a star network is often referred to as a hub-and-spoke network topology.
Detailed explanation-2: -Bus topology is a network type where every device is connected to a single cable that runs from one end of the network to the other. This type of network topology is often referred to as line topology. In a bus topology, data is transmitted in one direction only.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bus topology, also known as line topology, is a type of network topology in which all devices in the network are connected by one central RJ-45 network cable or coaxial cable. The single cable, where all data is transmitted between devices, is referred to as the bus, backbone, or trunk.
