Network topology architectures define how devices connect and communicate in a network. From simple setups like bus and star to advanced models like three-tier and leaf-spine, each has its own purpose and strengths. Modern networks also mix on-prem and cloud environments to balance control, scalability, and flexibility.

Let’s see how well you know network topology architectures. If you can get at least 80% right, you can safely skip this section and move on!
