Which network topology features a design where each access switch connects to every aggregation switch, providing consistent latency and high availability across the network?
The spine-leaf architecture connects every leaf (access) switch to each spine (aggregation) switch. This setup ensures consistent latency and high availability by providing multiple equal-cost paths for data traffic. It's ideal for data centers that require scalable and efficient network performance. The three-tier architecture includes separate core, distribution, and access layers, adding more complexity. Ring topology connects devices in a circular fashion, which doesn't provide the same level of redundancy and latency consistency. Bus topology connects all devices along a single communication line, leading to potential bottlenecks and lack of redundancy.
