MCQ IN COMPUTER SCIENCE & ENGINEERING

Detailed explanation-1: -A network topology is the physical and logical arrangement of nodes and connections in a network. Nodes usually include devices such as switches, routers and software with switch and router features. Network topologies are often represented as a graph.

Detailed explanation-2: -A logical topology is how devices appear connected to the user. A physical topology is how they are actually interconnected with wires and cables.

Detailed explanation-3: -Physical topology refers to the interconnected structure of a local area network (LAN). The method employed to connect the physical devices on the network with the cables, and the type of cabling used, all constitute the physical topology.

Detailed explanation-4: -Logical Topologies. The two logical topologies are broadcast (also known as bus) and sequential (also known as ring). In a broadcast topology, all devices on the network receive every message transmitted.

Detailed explanation-5: -A network topology diagram is a visual representation of a network’s devices, connections, and paths, allowing you to picture how devices are interconnected and how they communicate with one another.
