The scenario
Students are learning network topologies and the token passing mechanism in a ring network.
What is in this drawing
Read the decisions behind it.
01
Use a ring layout to physically arrange nodes in a cycle.
02
Connect four PCs in a closed loop to form the ring.
03
Demonstrate the direction of token passing implicitly through the cyclic links.
When teaching fundamental network topologies and legacy token ring protocol behaviors.
