3. Unlike Ethernet, Token Ring uses a ring topology whereby the data is sent from
one machine to the next and so on around the ring until it ends up back where it
started. It also uses a token passing protocol which means that a machine can
only use the network when it has control of the Token, this ensures that there are
no collisions because only one machine can use the network at any given time.

That's called a "token".That's called a "token".That's called a "token".That's called a "token".
A token bus uses a shared bus for communication. Hosts on the bus are ordered in a logical ring, with access to the bus coordinated by passing a token (a special packet) around the ring, indicating permission to transmit. The intent is to get the robustness of a simple bus protocol with the deterministic response time of a token ring. Unfortunately, because the bus is shared, each host on the bus must wait for the token to be completely transmitted before it can pass it on. This is in contrast to a token ring, where the token passes through each host with only a few bits delay. This gives the token bus considerably worse latency than a token ring. The reliability of a token protocol over a (CSMA protocl such as Ethernet ) is undermined by the complex protocols needed to recover the token at exactly one host should it become corrupted.

no. The differences between ethernet and token ring are greater then the frame type. Ethernet uses CDMA and token ring uses.....well a token. Token ring adapters have an on-board processor for source route bridging which uses a RIF field and ethernet has nothing of the sort. There are many more examples, but the simple answer is it will not work. fm

In a token bus network architecture, the nodes at either end of the bus do not actually meet. In a token ring, the network logically functions as a ring, but is wired as a star.
It is a 'token' of your affection for that person.
That is not possible. In Token Ring, only the station with the token can transmit.
IBM created the token ring architecture, which was used for years primarily by Novell.

Only Juliet's ring, the token of her love
it is a network data communication system where each of the device connected with it wait for their time to communicate. when they have the token, they got to communicate or sent transmission.
