Performance is often evaluated by two networking metrics, what are they?

-delay -throughput

advantages of ring topology are:

the disadvantages of bus topology are:

-include difficult reconnection and fault isolation difficult to add new devices. -a fault or break in the bus cable stops all transmission

what are the Network Criteria? 3

-performance -reliability -security

The performance of a network depends on a number of factors, but including what?

-the number of users -type of transmission medium -the capabilities of the connected hardware -efficiency of the software

give some examples of transmission medium: 4

-twisted-pair -coaxial cable -fiber-optic cable -radio waves

we have many types of transmission of *Physical topology* , what are they? 3

-unicast -multicast -broadcast

disadvantages of ring topology are:

-unidirectional traffic can be a disadvantage. -In a simple ring, a break in the ring can disable the entire network.

The Effectiveness of data communication depends on what? 4

-Delivery: must deliver data to correct destination -Accuracy: must deliver data accurately -Timeliness: deliver data in a timely manner -Jitter: Variation in the packet arrival time

the advantages of star topology are: 2

1. star topology is less expensive than a mesh topology --> because the number of links --> so it easy to install and reconfigure. 2. If one link fails, only that link is affected. All other links remain active.(easy fault identification)

what are the disadvantages of mesh topology? 2

1. the amount of cabling and the number of I/O ports required 2. the hardware required to connect each link (I/O ports and cable) can be expensive.

what are the advantages of mesh topology? 4

1.the use of dedicated links guarantees that each connection can carry its own data load. 2.If one link becomes unusable, it does not incapacitate the entire system. 3.privacy or security. When every message travels along a dedicated line, only the intended recipient sees it. 4.point-to-point links make fault identification and fault isolation easy.
