Answer: star topology.
Explanation:
The layout of the way how the computers in a netword are interconnected is called network tipology.
Some types of network topologies are:
1) Point-to-point tipology: all the computers are connected to each other directly (computer-to-computer, in pairs, this is a direct link between each two computers).
2) Bus topology: all the nodes (computers or server) are connectect to a maing cable.
3) Star topology: all the computers are connected to a central computer or server which is called central hub. This is the layout described in the question.
4) Ring topology: the computers are connectec in a circular path; each computer is connected to the next computer.
5) Mesh: every computer is connected to every other computer.
Answer: Windows
Explanation:
ShellShock: Also called Bashdoor, it is a security bug which is found in the Bash shell of operating system e.g. Unix. It allows the hacker to execute scripts and commands by gaining unauthorized access. This affects many machines, devices that use Bash. Servers like web servers are most affected as most of them run Unix based OS like OS X. Most vulnerable are those who use Unix or Linux operating systems.
Microsoft Windows does not use Bash so it does not directly affect Windows os. For those who are using Windows PC, Windows phones and websites that are developed by MS software are non-vulnerable to ShellShock.
A component which is most likely to allow both physical and virtual machines to communicate with each other is a: virtual switch.
<h3>What is virtualization?</h3>
Virtualization can be defined as the creation of an abstract layer over computer hardware primarily through the use of a software, in order to enable the operating system (OS), storage device, server, etc., to be used by end users over the Internet.
In Cloud computing, some of the components (features) which is not required for a successful virtualization environment include the following:
In conclusion, we can infer and logically deduce that a component which is most likely to allow both physical and virtual machines to communicate with each other is a virtual switch because it enables the virtual servers and the desktops to communicate.
