maintenance?

✓ :~~ The token ring path must be temporarily broken or interrupted if a

computer or any device on the network is to be removed or added to the

network.




What is a solution to the troubleshooting and maintenance disadvantages of the

What are the disadvantages of a bus topology?

✓ :~~ "1. Data can be corrupted if ore than one device on the network

transmits at the same time and will have to be resubmitted.

2. The use of the shared coaxial cable prevents data transmission from being very

bandwidth-efficient."




Which topology is seldomly used in modern networks?

✓ :~~ Bus topology




What is the most common topology used in today's LANs?

✓ :~~ Star topology




Topology that uses twisted-pair cables with modular plugs to connect computers

and other networking devices.
