Atree network topologyprovidesbetter resilience and stabilitycompared to abus topology:
* Fault Isolation:In a tree topology, a failure in one branch does not necessarily bring down the entire network.
* Hierarchy Structure:If a single link fails, only a segment of the network is affected, not the whole system.
* Easier Troubleshooting:The hierarchical layout allows for easier identification and isolation of faulty nodes.
* Compared to Bus Topology:In a bus topology, a single cable failure can disrupt the entire network.
Incorrect Options:
* A. Easier network expansion:True, but not primarily a security advantage.
* B. Better performance:Depends on network design, not a security aspect.
* D. Less susceptible to eavesdropping:Tree topology itself does not inherently reduce eavesdropping risks.
Exact Extract from CCOA Official Review Manual, 1st Edition:
Refer to Chapter 5, Section "Network Topologies," Subsection "Tree Topology Benefits" - The primary security advantage is increased fault tolerance and stability.
