What is Topology

Topology

In a computer network, many computers are connected together, the phone allows one computer to communicate with another computer. Based on the location of the connected computers, computer networks can be divided into the following:

 PAN (Personal Area Network)

 LAN (Local Area Network)

 MAN (Metropolitan Area Network)

 WAN (Wide Area Network)

 The network that is created at the personal level (via Bluetooth) is the PAN. All the networks used in schools, colleges, universities or various institutions are Local Area Networks or LANs. A MAN is the network that is usually built within a city. A network that is created across a country or across the world is a WAN. Various methods can be used to connect the computers belonging to this network. This different approach is called network topology.
