Local Area Network (LAN) - 10 : Hybrid Topologies
Finally, there are hybrid topologies. The hybrid topology combines different topologies and protocols in one network. It is common to find this in most large networks today. By using hybrid designs, the network manager can use the best topology for a specific need. Without this option they may be forced to operate less effectively with a single topology design.
The use of concentrators allows a hybrid network to operate effectively. #LAN #bus #topology
