Assume you are a network consultant for a company that is designing a private WAN to communicate between five locations spread throughout a city. You want to tell the company president that this WAN will use a design for maximum uptime to all locations. Which of the designs should you use

A mesh network design

Explanation:

In designing local area networks, we can follow one of several network topologies, some of these are; bus, star, ring, star-ring hybrid, mesh, etc. In a mesh topology, all the PCs are inter-connected to each other such that the computers do not send signals, they also act as signal relay to others within the network, considering that in this question scenario the goal is to acheive maximum uptime at all locations, a mesh design will be the best.
