Star Topology

Definition: Star topology is a computer network configuration in which all devices are connected to a central device, typically a switch or hub. In this arrangement, each device communicates directly with the central device, thereby creating a centralized and efficient network structure.

Senses:

  1. Noun: A network configuration where all devices are connected to a central device.
  2. Noun: A network topology commonly used in LAN (Local Area Network) setups.

Examples:

  • The office LAN uses a star topology, with each computer connected to a central switch.
  • In a star topology, if one device fails, it does not affect the rest of the network.
  • With the increasing popularity of wireless networks, the traditional star topology is gradually being replaced by mesh networks.
