  2. Computer network diagram - Wikipedia

    For example, the sample diagram does not indicate the physical type of connection between the PCs and the switch, but since a modern LAN is depicted, Ethernet may be assumed. If the same style of line was used in a WAN (wide area network) diagram, however, it may indicate a different type of connection.

  3. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    Hybrid topology is also known as hybrid network. [19] Hybrid networks combine two or more topologies in such a way that the resulting network does not exhibit one of the standard topologies (e.g., bus, star, ring, etc.). For example, a tree network (or star-bus network) is a hybrid topology in which star networks are interconnected via bus ...

    Broadly, there are four types of tools that help create network maps and diagrams: Hybrid tools; Network Mapping tools; Network Monitoring tools; Drawing tools; Network mapping and drawing software support IT systems managers to understand the hardware and software services on a network and how they are interconnected. Network maps and diagrams ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_architecture

    Network architecture is the design of a computer network.It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as communication protocols used.

  6. Butterfly network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butterfly_network

    The ratio of switching nodes to processor nodes is greater than one in a butterfly network. Such topology, where the ratio of switching nodes to processor nodes is greater than one, is called an indirect topology. [1] The network derives its name from connections between nodes in two adjacent ranks (as shown in figure 1), which resembles a ...

  7. Tree network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_network

    A tree topology, or star-bus topology, is a hybrid network topology in which star networks are interconnected via bus networks. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Tree networks are hierarchical, and each node can have an arbitrary number of child nodes.

  8. Torus interconnect - Wikipedia

    The second is a two dimension torus, in the shape of a 'doughnut'. The animation illustrates how a two dimension torus is generated from a rectangle by connecting its two pairs of opposite edges. At one dimension, a torus topology is equivalent to a ring interconnect network, in the shape of a circle. At two dimensions, it becomes equivalent to ...

  9. Hypercube internetwork topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Hypercube_internetwork_topology

    Routing method for a hypercube network is referred to as E-Cube routing. The distance between two nodes in the network can be given by Hamming weight of (number of ones in) the XOR-operation between their respective binary labels. The distance between Node 1 (represented as ‘01’) and Node 2 (represented as ‘10’) in the network given by:
