Network topology

Diagram of different network topologies.

Network topology is the layout of the connections (links, nodes, etc.) of a computer network.[1][2]

The names used - such as ring or star - are only rough descriptions. The computers on a home network can be arranged in a circle but it does not necessarily mean that it represents a ring network.
