Token Ring is a network protocol used for local area networks (LANs) that employs a token-passing method to manage access to the shared network medium. The primary purpose of Token Ring is to prevent data collisions by allowing only the device holding the token to transmit data, ensuring orderly communication. This protocol was developed by IBM and was popular in the 1980s and 1990s, though it has largely been supplanted by Ethernet technology in modern networks.
What else can I help you with?
What is the purpose of the token frame in a token ring network?
To indicate to the network that a particular node is about to transmit data
What is the purpose of a token in a token-passing network?
The token indicates current "ownership" of the ring, in that only one client at a time can have access to the network. If you don't have the token you can't do anything on the network. It also indicates the status of the ring, whether it is in use, available to transmit on, health status, etc.
Who generates the token in token ring?

What internetworking device is used to connect computers on a Token Ring?
Token ring hub
What is difference between Token Ring Token Bus?
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.
Definition of token ring?
It is a 'token' of your affection for that person.
If four token ring stations attempt to transmit at the same time what happens?
That is not possible. In Token Ring, only the station with the token can transmit.
Who developed token ring?
IBM created the token ring architecture, which was used for years primarily by Novell.

Which access method is used in Token Ring?
