Token RingA wide range of unique neighborhood location network technologies were created in the early 1970s, of which one, the Cambridge Ring had demonstrated the possible of a token passing ring topology , and many teams worldwide began functioning on their personal implementations. If any of these phases fail, the Token Ring station will not insert into the ring and the Token Ring driver could report an error. For far more details about ring speed specifications, refer to the hardware installation and upkeep manual for your technique.

Token Ring uses a logical ring topology, which supplies far more equal opportunity for each station to acquire access to the network than the broadcast process applied by Ethernet. Fault diagnosis is tough, mainly because fault detection may have to be performed from any point in the network.

Token Ring was developed in the early 1980’s by IBM as a way to connect PCs with each other. This section supplies troubleshooting procedures for frequent Token Ring media complications. A MAU is IBM-speak for Various Access Unit and they were roughly analogous to a switch now.

If you are performing a new installation, make sure that the MAU has been effectively initialized. This fully removed 1 of the big technical positive aspects that Token Ring had more than Ethernet. As far as getting information on the network, information sent from a computer system on the network moves about the logical ring.

This is due to the complicated token passing protocol which increases the difficulty of manufacturing such equipment. Token-Ring does offer a incredibly neat function that permits the computer systems on the Token-Ring network to support diagnose difficulties with the logical ring.
