- [Instructor] In order to properly secure a network, we need a solid understanding of how the network is designed. Let's spend some time talking about these network design principles. First, let's delve into transport architecture. Transport architecture and networking is a framework that guides the movement of data across a network. It includes several key components, including topology, the data plane, control plane, and management plane. The topology of a network refers to the layout of network devices and connections. It's like a map that shows how different parts of the network are interconnected. We've already discussed different types of topologies like star, mesh, and hybrid, each with its own advantages and challenges. We also have a concept of network planes. These are layers of operation within a network. Each plane represents a different aspect of how network data is processed and managed. The data plane is where the actual data transfer takes place.
