Token passing
Token ring hub
Token Passing
Data is transmitted on a network in pieces called packets, datagrams, or frames. Specifically, the frame is the header and trailer surrounding the data. The entire header, trailer, and data is called the packet or datagram. A token is a small packet used on Token Ring or FDDI networks. The token is passed from node to node to indicate to the node that data can be sent on the network.
i think the next question is " what is the name of the access method used on the LAN?
Token passing
Token ring is a loacal area network technology. It is limited in ldistance by its physical layer connection requirements.
You are thinking ring topology. Not used much today.
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
Both Token Ring and FDDI use the concept of a ring topology structure. However, Token Ring is used in a LAN, and FDDI is used in a MAN.Token Ring is implemented with copper cable (UTP cable) and FDDI uses Fiber Optic cable.Finally, the protocols are very different between the two. FDDI uses a synchronous type of transmission, where Token Ring uses an actual token (a 3 character packet) to control who has access to transmit or receive on the network. FDDI does not use this technique.
In a ring topology, the access method used is typically token passing. In this method, a token is passed around the ring from one node to the next, allowing nodes to transmit data when they possess the token. This helps in controlling and managing the network traffic in a structured manner.
Token ring hub
Token Passing
IBM created the token ring architecture, which was used for years primarily by Novell.
IP, appletalk, token ring, CSMA/CD, CSMA/CA
The network connection breaks because the one path being used is broken.
A center connectivity device means a star topology is being used. If it is a managed hub such as a MAU or MSAU unit, then it is a token ring network.
