hard📝 Application Q8 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand fault tolerance in topologies
Bus and star topologies have single points of failure; ring fails if one device breaks; mesh has multiple paths.Step 2: Identify topology with redundancy
Mesh topology allows communication even if one connection fails due to multiple links.Final Answer:
Mesh topology -> Option BQuick Check:
Redundancy and fault tolerance = Mesh topology [OK]
Quick Trick: Mesh provides backup paths for failures [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Choosing star or ring for fault tolerance
- Assuming bus is fault tolerant
- Ignoring mesh redundancy
