The network architecture used to interconnect the networking equipment. -
Correct-answer-Topology
What are the most common topologies for LANs? - Correct-answer-Ring, Bus, and
Star
Uses a token that is placed in the data channel and circulates around the ring. -
Correct-answer-Token Ring topology
A deterministic network - Correct-answer-Token Ring Topology
Each station connected to the network ensures access for transmission of its
messages at regular or fixed time intervals - Correct-answer-Deterministic
What are the disadvantages of the Token Ring system? - Correct-answer-1. If an
error changes the token pattern, it can cause the token to stop circulating.

What is a disadvantage of the Token Ring system from the troubleshooting and
maintenance? - Correct-answer-The token ring path must be temporarily broken
or interrupted if a computer or any device on the network is to be removed or
added to the network.
What is a solution to the troubleshooting and maintenance disadvantages of the
Token Ring system? - Correct-answer-Connect each computer or device on the
network to a central token ring hub.
A device that manages the passing of the token instead of relying on individual
computers to pass it. - Correct-answer-Token ring hub
How does the token ring hub improve the network? - Correct-answer-It improves
the reliability of the network.
Topology whereas the computers share the media or coaxial cable for data
transmission. - Correct-answer-Bus topology
The coaxial cable that is looped through each networking device to transmit data
in a bus topology - Correct-answer-ThinNet
