Ring topology


Ring topology:

The ring network is a local area network whose topology is a ring can be as simple as a circle or point to point connection of computers at dispersed locations with no central host computer or communications controller. That isall of the nodes are connected in a closed loop. Messages travel around the ring, with each node reading
those messages addressed to it. One of the advantages of ring networks is that they can span larger distances than they can span larger distances than other types of networks.
