In the last blog posts we discussed about the star topology and bus topology . This is the third of the series of blog posts on network topologies. This blog post will explain about the mesh/fully connected topology, its pros and cons and the typical usage of its architecture. Mesh or Fully connected topology -  In a mesh or fully connected topology all the nodes are interconnected with each other without the use of a common media. In this blog post: Advantages of Mesh / Fully connected Topology Disadvantages of Mesh / Fully connected topology Usages of Mesh / Fully connected topology For example, as we discussed, in a star topology , all the networking devices were interconnected using a switch or a hub and in the bus topology , all the devices were interconnected using a bus line. More topologies to discover: Bus Topology Ring topology Star topology However, in mesh or fully connected topology, as the name implies, all the devices are i...
