Ethernet Configuration
This section describes the star topology Ethernet configuration. It
is intended to help you make the proper connections for your
Ethernet networking system.
Star Topology
A 10Base-T Ethernet network is configured in a star topology (see
Figure A-1).
A star topology is a physical topology in which multiple nodes are
connected to a central component, generally known as a hub or
repeater.
Figure A-1 Star topology
A star topology is easy to troubleshoot, since each segment sup-
ports only a single attachment. A star topology must comply with
the IEEE 802.3 connection rules.
