A quick internet search for "Botnet Communication Methods" is your friend, it explains all the methods you've listed as well as pros and cons of each method respectively. You can also look at a PDF document that explains a bit about the topologies here https://www.damballa.com/downloads/r_pu ... -04%29.pdf
