One or more computers connected to a hub computer is a:
Correct answer: A. star network
- A. star network
- B. information utility
- C. node
- D. ring network
Explanation
In a star network topology, all devices are connected to a central hub or switch. This central device transmits data packets to the specific recipient device on the network. Star networks are common due to their simplicity, ease of troubleshooting, and scalability. When a device transmits data in a star network, the data only travels to the intended recipient and not to all devices on the network, as in the case of a hub.
