H12-811_V1.0 · Question #939
The tree topology is a hierarchical star topology, facilitating network expansion. A consequence of this topology is that faults on a node at a higher layer are more severe.
The correct answer is A. TRUE. In a tree topology, nodes are arranged hierarchically with root nodes at the top and leaf nodes at the base. This structure is often used in larger networks because it supports scalability and easy addition of nodes. However, if a higher-level node (e.g., root or intermediate…

Explanation
In a tree topology, nodes are arranged hierarchically with root nodes at the top and leaf nodes at the base. This structure is often used in larger networks because it supports scalability and easy addition of nodes. However, if a higher-level node (e.g., root or intermediate node) fails, all dependent nodes in its subtree lose connectivity. Therefore, faults at higher layers have a more significant impact than faults at the leaves.
