Explanation

LAN topology refers to the physical or logical arrangement and organization of network devices (nodes, cables, switches, etc.) and how they interconnect to enable communication. Common topologies include bus, star, ring, mesh, and tree. This is distinct from transmission methods (how data is sent), protocols (rules for communication), and media access methods (how devices gain access to the shared medium).
