May i ask besides star topology, what other topology is inside this network? is tree topology include?

This is kind of hybrid. it contains many topologies.

Please rate this and mark as solution/answer, if this resolved your issue
Good luck

What you have, more or less, is a two tier hierarchical topology.

Such topologies, whether two tier (e.g. collapsed backbone), three tier (e.g. access, distribution, core), or more tiers (unusual to have more than 3 tiers), are generally build around mostly around star, or tree, topologies.  Where they differ, from a pure star topology, is often having multiple core devices (rather than a single root device), or perhaps having additional links between core level, distribution level or even access level.  Creating, in principle, possibly a partial mesh topology, but logically, the "layers" are often in a star/tree configuration.

In your diagram, if you were setting up STP, to block accidental loops, for a STP root, likely you would chose either KLr3 or KLr4.  But those two devices appear to be the logical "core" of your network, or a logical "root" of a star, or tree, topology.
