  2. Star network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_network

    Star topology in use in a network. A star network is an implementation of a spoke–hub distribution paradigm in computer networks. In a star network, every host is connected to a central hub. In its simplest form, one central hub acts as a conduit to transmit messages. [1] The star network is one of the most common computer network topologies .

  7. Spanning Tree Protocol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanning_Tree_Protocol

    The Spanning Tree Protocol ( STP) is a network protocol that builds a loop-free logical topology for Ethernet networks. The basic function of STP is to prevent bridge loops and the broadcast radiation that results from them. Spanning tree also allows a network design to include backup links providing fault tolerance if an active link fails.
