Star Topology

 About Star Topology.

In star configuration, the central computer performs all processing and control functions. All access devices are linked directly to the central computer. The star configuration has two major limitations. First of all, the remote devices are unable to communicate directly. Instead they must communicate via the central computer only. Secondly, the star network very capable to failure, either in the central computer or the transmission links.

Advantage of star topology:
1. Secure network because of central computer.
2.Easy to find network failure or errors.
3.Able to connect multiple nodes(Computer)
4.Scalable.

Disadvantage of star topology:
1. If central computer goes down then full network goes down.
2.Expensive to install.
3.Doesn't possible to communicate directly from computer to 
   computer.
