1.环形拓扑:
环形拓扑是一种网络拓扑,其中每个设备特别连接到以环形或环形方式连接到设备的两个分支。环形拓扑的可靠性较差,因为一台设备的故障可能会干扰整个网络。环形拓扑比树形拓扑便宜。
2.树形拓扑:
树形拓扑是一种网络拓扑,其中设备以树的形式进行组织。在树形拓扑中,层次结构是由无回路的分支电缆形成的,该回路将根与所有其他节点连接以进行通信。树形拓扑更昂贵,因为它的布线密集。
环形拓扑和树形拓扑之间的区别如下:
S.No. | Ring Topology | Tree Topology |
---|---|---|
1. | In Ring topology, each device is connected to specifically two branches connected to devices. | In tree topology, the devices are organized in the form of a tree. |
2. | Ring topology is less reliable than tree topology. | Tree topology is more reliable as failure of one device does not disturb the full network. |
3. | The amount of cable needed in ring topology is very less than the tree topology. | The amount of cable needed in tree topology is high than the ring topology. |
4. | Ring topology is generally suited for LAN. | Tree topology is used in WAN. |
5. | Security is low in ring topology. | While security is high in tree topology. |
6. | The cost of ring topology is lower than tree topology. | The cost of tree topology is high in comparison to ring topology. |
