In a star network topology, what is the potential disadvantage of a central hub failure, and how can this be mitigated in large networks?

Question

Answer

The entire network can fail, and redundancy can be added by using multiple hubs or switches

Answer

The performance decreases for individual nodes, and this can be mitigated by increasing node bandwidth

Answer

Network latency increases, and improving cabling standards reduces this issue

Answer

Data collisions increase, and using switches instead of hubs reduces this risk
