  1. I get the logic behind the argument for supporting bus as the answer. But let me ask this: What if we introduced a server on the network? Or even a printer? Would this still be a bus topology?

  2. “D” is the correct answer. This is the correct answer because typically, a router is connected to a switch with a single patch cable, so if the cable is interfered with in any way that may disrupt the network, the entire network goes down.
    A bus topology connection will typically go down if any one connection is interrupted, effecting the entire network as a whole.
    Hope this helps.

  3. Is the question making out that the router is connected to the firewall and then onto the switch which would be a bus topology?

  4. It’s not pointless if others who are truly confused can get some clarification. I understand what you are saying though. But as a community, we should be helping one another out. I was even thinking that we should even explain why the answer is correct because that will help others understand better who aren’t as knowledgable as others.

  5. It’s pointless to comment because VCEguide doesn’t seem to fix any of the wrong questions on the website but for those practicing for exams, this question is absolutely wrong. You can not have all those devices within a bus network or any control devices in general. What the question describes is a star topology.

    1. its definitely not pointless,
      I love it when someone else posts the correct answer, I can then agree disagree and in either case google it.
      this one was pretty obvious but still i appreciated it.
