Describe the basic differences between the star, ring, and bus topologies


The star topology is a configuration of IPUs with a large central computer (the host) at the hub (or center) that has connections to a number of smaller computers. Communication between nodes is managed from the host.
The ring topology connects many computers of equal status. There is no host. Management of communication is distributed among the nodes.
In the bus topology, all nodes are connected to a common cable, the bus. Communication and file transfer are controlled centrally by one or more server.
