Question
Company ABC’s network is based on the star topology. What will make this topology scalable?(1 point)
Responses
No scalability since the whole network will be down and none of the hosts will have network connectivity.
No scalability since the whole network will be down and none of the hosts will have network connectivity.
The ability to add more computers without disrupting the operation of the network.
The ability to add more computers without disrupting the operation of the network.
The failed connection will be down and only the two hosts between the failed connections will have no network connectivity.
The failed connection will be down and only the two hosts between the failed connections will have no network connectivity.
In the event of a network failure, it is very difficult to troubleshoot.

The correct response indicating what makes the star topology scalable is:
**The ability to add more computers without disrupting the operation of the network.**
In a star topology, each device is connected to a central hub or switch. This design allows for easy addition of new devices without interrupting the existing network connections, enhancing scalability.
