In this article, I have explained navigational types and structure in SharePoint.
– Global and current navigation
– Structured navigation
– Managed Navigation
Global and current navigation has been described as inverted ‘L’
Global navigation look likes below screen
Structured Navigation:
Structure navigation it automatically generates the link when the pages, list and libraries and subsite has been created and also manually add links under navigation options.
Following images show structure navigation:
Navigate to site settings -> Under look and feel -> Click Navigation
Choose the structural navigation option for Global navigation and also check the show subsite it will help to display the child nodes under parent node
If you need structural navigation for current navigation also it’s your choice
Also you can create navigation links manually by Click Add heading

Managed Navigation:
Managed navigation it does not automatically create a navigation links like structured navigation. It allow the user to create a site navigation term sets (metadata) using term store management tool under site navigation option.
Following images show Managed navigation:
Navigate to site settings -> Under look and feel -> Click Navigation
Choose the Managed navigation option for Global navigation.
Under managed navigation term set

Open the term store management tool for creating navigation term and term sets
Click Ok
