CheckPoint: Ethernet and Token Ring STUDENT IT/242 November 10‚ 2011 Philippe Rowland CheckPoint: Ethernet and Token Ring Network Saguaro Federal should use the Token Ring protocol for their banks and businesses. This is appropriate because the physical topology of the token ring is a star‚ but the logical topology is a ring. In Token Ring LAN’s each station is connected to a wiring concentrator

6/19/2014 IT/242 Adam Moneypenny Ethernet or Token Ring •Saguaro Federal has mainframes for all of its banks and businesses. Must the company use the Ethernet or Token Ring protocol? Explain your choice. Why is this choice appropriate? In this scenario the best protocol to use would be a token ring because the token ring protocol is mainly used in mainframes. Token Ring uses a token method to go to each work station or main frame that are typically set in a ring or at least all connected together

Ethernet vs. Token Ring Topology Ethernet and Token Ring LAN technologies operate in different ways and both systems have their inherent advantages and disadvantages. The decision on which topology to use can be influenced by a number of factors. The most common factors to consider are cost‚ reliability‚ speed‚ size‚ administration‚ security and growth. Ethernet is a frame-based computer networking technology for local area networks (LANs). It defines wiring and signaling for the physical

Token ring [pic] Token ring local area network (LAN) technology is a local area network protocol which resides at the data link layer (DLL) of the OSI model. It uses a special three-byte frame called a token that travels around the ring. Token-possession grants the possessor permission to transmit on the medium. Token ring frames travel completely around the loop. Initially used only in IBM computers‚ it was eventually standardized with protocol IEEE 802.5. Stations on a token ring LAN are logically

Ethernet Systems communicating over Ethernet divide a stream of data into shorter pieces called frames. Each frame contains source and destination addresses and error-checking data so that damaged data can be detected and re-transmitted. The Ethernet provides services up to and including the data link layer. Since its commercial release‚ Ethernet has retained a good degree of compatibility. Features such as the 48-bit MAC address and Ethernet frame format have influenced other networking protocols

Token ring is a local area network protocol which resides at the data link layer (DLL) of the OSI model. It uses a special three-byte frame called a token that travels unidirectionally around a star-wired logical ring. Token ring frames travel completely around the loop. The name ’Token Ring’ is misleading since the physical topology is a loop. Each station passes or repeats the special token frame around the ring to its nearest downstream neighbor. This token-passing process is used to arbitrate

Evolution of Ethernet by: Yolanda Castro IS3120 Instructor: Mr. Thompson October 2‚ 2012 Ethernet is a family of computer networking technologies for local area networks (LANs). Ethernet was introduced to the commercial marketplace in 1980‚ and has replaced other LAN technologies. It’s a baseband LAN specification invented by Xerox Corporation that operates at 10Mbps using carrier sense multiple access collision detection (CSMA/CD) to run over coaxial cable. Ethernet was designed to serve
