Ring Topology
retrived from:https://www.comparitech.com/net-admin/network-topologies-advantages-disadvantages/
In networks with a ring topology, computers are connected to each other in a circular format. Every device in the network will have two neighbors and no more or no less. The first node is connected to the last node to link the loop together. As a consequence of being laid out in this format packets need to travel through all nodes on the way to their destination.
Within this topology, one node is chosen to configure the network and monitor other devices. Ring topologies are half-duplex but can also be made full-duplex. To make ring topologies full-duplex you would need to have two connections between network nodes to form a Dual Ring Topology. Ring topologies can sustain large networks much more effectively than bus topologies.
