What is Token Ring Network & How It Works?

Token Ring Network:
                                    Its usually operate at either 4 Mbps or 16 Mbps. token Ring network are laid out in loop that starts and ends at the same node forming a ring.
Working:
                A Token Ring node receives message only from its nearest upstream neighbor (NAUN) and sends signals to its downstream neighbor. Token Ring use a token passing access method, in which only the workstation or computer holding the token is allowed to transmit on the network. As the workstation or computer completes its task, it places the token on the network for another node to use.
