FIGURE 10 Full mesh topology
This topology is highly reliable and fast, but it does not scale well. It is reliable because it provides many
paths through the fabric in case of cable or node failure. It is fast with low latency because you can get
to any node in the fabric in just one hop. It does not scale well because each additional node increases
the number of fabric links and switch ports exponentially. This topology is suitable for smaller fabrics
only.
