2. Objective:
1. Star topology
Background:
A star topology is a topology for a Local Area Network (LAN) in which all nodes are individually connected
to a central connection point, like a hub or a switch. A star takes more cable than e.g. a bus, but the benefit is
that if a cable fails, only one node will be brought down. Star topology is also known as a star network.
