The only way to tell the difference is to investigate, and the best place to start your investigation is with documentation. 2. Understand Your Network Topology.
<h3>What is
Topology?</h3>
Topology studies properties of spaces that are invariant under any continuous deformation. It is sometimes called "rubber-sheet geometry" because the objects can be stretched and contracted like rubber, but cannot be broken. For example, a square can be deformed into a circle without breaking it.
The properties of a geometric object that are preserved under continuous deformations, such as stretching, twisting, crumpling, and bending, i.e., without closing holes, opening holes, tearing, gluing, or passing through itself, are the subject of topology in mathematics (from the Greek words o, "place, location," and, "study").
A topological space is a set that possesses a topological structure that allows for the definition of continuous deformation of subspaces and, more broadly, all types of continuity. Since every distance or metric defines a topology, Euclidean spaces and, more broadly, metric spaces are instances of topological spaces.
