Question

Match List I with List II

LIST I	LIST II
A. Mesh topology	III. Each node is connected to two other devices, one each on either side
B. Ring topology	IV. Each communicating device is connected with every other device
C. Bus topology	I. Single backbone wire shared among the nodes
D. Star topology	II. Each communicating device is connected to a central networking device

• A. A-IV, B-I, C-II, D-III
• B. A-III, B-IV, C-I, D-II
• C. A-II, B-III, C-IV, D-I
• D. A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV
  \textbf{Correct Answer:} (4) A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV

Hint:

Different network topologies have different ways of connecting devices. Understanding these can help in selecting the right one for a given network design.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

- In a Mesh topology, each device is connected with every other device, so A matches with III.
- In a Ring topology, each device is connected to two other devices, one each on either side, so B matches with IV.
- In a Bus topology, a single backbone wire is shared among the nodes, so C matches with I.
- In a Star topology, each device is connected to a central networking device, so D matches with II.
Thus, the correct answer is "A-I, B-II, C-III, D-IV."
