Network topology is the physical design of a LAN which resolves the conflict that occurs between computers on the network attempting to transmit at the same time. Whereas protocols are the standards used by networks to permit communication between network-connected devices.

ISL IS A CISCO PROPRIETARY TUNNELING PROTOCOL, BUT 802.1 q IS A OPEN STANDARD PROTOCOL
A spanning tree protocol, or STP, is characteristic to a LAN. It provides a loop-free topology for networks within the system.
SSL (Secure Socket Layer,) is a protocol. Most Cisco VPNs will use SSL as their security protocol, so there is no difference between Cisco VPN and SSL VPN.
IP is the internet protocol that uniquely identifies a system on a network and there is no difference between IP and IPv4 infact IPv4 is a version of like IPv6.
The Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) is primarily based on three topologies: the star topology, the ring topology, and the mesh topology. In a star topology, all devices connect to a central hub or switch, facilitating straightforward communication. The ring topology connects devices in a circular fashion, allowing data to pass in one direction, while the mesh topology offers multiple pathways between nodes for redundancy and reliability. Each topology serves distinct purposes in the overall structure of the PSTN.
- In your own words, define the term 'protocol' and what is the difference between protocol and protocol suite
etiquette is what, and protocol is when
no difference,,,tree and hybrid are same.
Topology is the actual layout of the network, for instance, where the routers and other devices are located. That would be the networks topology.
1.) Mesh topology:- Routing protocol such as RIP(routing information protocol) or OSPF (open shortest path protocol) is used. 2.) Star topology:- Ethernet, token ring, Local Talk, ATM........... all are used... 3.)Bus topology:- Ethernet protocol using CS-MA/CD as access method.....
A protocol is a set of rules for describing how to successfully exchange information between two systems.
The difference between a link and an interface is the protocol used.

Group of devices connected together forms a Network & structure (design) in which they interconnect is called Topology.
The physical connection is layer 1 of the OSI model, and is the medium through which the data is transfered. i.e., cables The logical connection is layer 3 of the OSI model, and is the network portion. Using the Internetwork Protocol (IP), each host is assigned a 32 bit IP address. e.g. 192.168.1.1
Physical topology are says how the wire are interconnected, while Logical topology is how the network behaves and interoperates.Sk wasim ul HaqueKharagpur, Madpur
There is no notable difference.
