A LAN physical topology with end points on the network converging at a common central switch (known as hub) using point-to-point links is known as

  1. A.

    Mesh topology

  2. B.

    Star topology

  3. C.

    Ring topology

  4. D.

    Cell topology

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

The correct option is B: Star topology. In a star topology, all devices are connected to a central controller (hub/switch) via dedicated point-to-point links. If a device wants to send data, it goes through the central hub, preventing direct traffic between endpoints.
