Ring Topology
Ring Topology In Ring Topology, all the nodes are connected to each-other in such a way that they make a closed loop. Each workstation is connected to two other components on either side, and it communicates with these two adjacent neighbors. Data travels around the network, in one direction. Sending and receiving of data takes place by the help of TOKEN. The network topology in which computer are connected in the shape of a circle without any end point is called ring topology. I n-ring topology data is passed from one device to the next device and so on until the data reaches the destination. In the past, the ring topology was most commonly used in schools, offices, and smaller buildings where networks were smaller. Function of Ring Topology * Data is transferred in a sequential manner . * A number of repeaters are used to transmission is unidirectional. Advantages of Ring Topology *It is easy to setup and configure. * It support high data transmission rate. * Additional compon
