Topology(LAN topology) is said to be the physical layout of the network(shape of the network).It specified how computer/nodes are connected to each other.It also represent the connection of nodes in a network.
Types of topology:-
1)Star Topology:-Star topology consist one central devices(HUB or Switch) which manage the whole data.
Advantages of Star topology:-
1)Easy to extend.
2)Easy to implement.
3)It is reliable.
4)Follow client Server architecture.
5)Transmission speed is very fast.
6)Installation is easy.
Disadvantages of Star topology:-
1)Use so many cables.
2)It is costly.
3)If central device is fail than whole system is down.
2)Ring Topology:-Ring topology are those topology whose physical layout is like a ring.It generally used coaxial cable.
Advantages of Ring topology:-
1)All nodes are equal.
2)Transmission speed is good.
3)Network is more readable.
Disadvantages of Ring topology:-
1)If one cable is loose than whole network is down.
2)If one node is not working than whole network is down.
3)It is expensive too.
3)Tree Topology:-It follow the concept of tree.It is also called as extended star topology.
4)Bus Topology:-Bus topology are those topology whose physical layout is like a linear bus.It is also called as linear topology.
Advantages of Bus topology:-

2)It is not expensive.
3)Follow client Server architecture.
Disadvantages of Bus topology:-
1)Required more cables.
2)Provide low security.
3)Troubleshooting problem.
4)If one cable is loose than whole network is down.
5)Mesh Topology:-It is also called as point to point topology because in this topology all nodes are connected to each other in a point to point network.
Thanks dear, Nice article on different types of Network typologies
