Choosing a Replication Network Topology

Enterprise Replication topology describes connections that replication servers make to interact with each other. You must define the replication topology within the topology of the physical network, but the replication topology is not synonymous with the physical network topology. The order in which you define the database servers for replication and the options that you use when you define the database server determine the replication topology.

Enterprise Replication supports two types of network topology:

The topology that you choose influences the types of replication that you can use. The next sections describe the topologies that Enterprise Replication supports.
