BASIC OF TOKEN-RING
The Saigon CTT
Variants
IBM developed the first
Token Ring network in
the 1970s. It is still
IBM's primary LAN
technology, and is
second only to Ethernet
(IEEE 802.3) in terms of
LAN implementation.

Ring topology
The Saigon CTT
Data passing
• When a station has information to
transmit, it seizes the token and sends
data frame to the next station.
• When frame reaches the destination
station, the data is copied for processing.
• Frame continues to circle the ring until it
returns to the sending station.
• Sending station removes the frame from
the ring, verifies receipt, and releases the
token.
The Saigon CTT

ETHERNET AND IEEE 802.3
The Saigon CTT
Ethernet introduction
• Ethernet is the most widely used local
area network (LAN) technology.
• Ethernet was designed to carry data at
high speeds for very limited distances.
• Ethernet is well suited to applications
where a local communication medium
must carry sporadic, occasionally heavy
traffic at high peak data rates.
The Saigon CTT
Ethernet history
• 1960s, the University of Hawaii.
• 1970s, Xerox developed the first system.
• 1980, IEEE released 802.3 specification.
• 1980s, Digital, Intel and Xerox jointly
developed and released an Ethernet
specification (v2.0), Compatible with 802.3
• Today, the term Ethernet is often used to
refer to Ethernet specifications, including
IEEE 802.3.
The Saigon CTT
Datalink and Physical layers
The Saigon CTT
Comparing Ethernet and IEEE 802.3
• Specify similar technologies.
• Broadcast network.
• Using CSMA/CD algorithm.
• Hardware implementation.
• Differences:
– Ethernet provides services corresponding to
physical and datalink layer.
– IEEE 802.3 specifies the physical layer and
the channel-access portion of the data link
layer but does not define a LLC protocol.

The Saigon CTT
Type (Ethernet)
• Specifies the upper-layer protocol

processing is completed
The Saigon CTT
Length (IEEE 802.3)
• The length indicates the number of
bytes of data that follows this field
The Saigon CTT
Data (Ethernet)
• the data contained in the frame is
sent to an upper-layer protocol
The Saigon CTT
Data (IEEE 802.3)
• Data send to LLC layer, including
LLC header and upper-layer data
The Saigon CTT
Frame check sequence (FCS)
• This sequence contains a 4 byte CRC
value that is created by the sender
and is recalculated by the receiver to
check for damaged frames
The Saigon CTT
Media Access Control (MAC)
• Shared-media broadcast technology.
• Ethernet’s MAC performs three functions:
1. transmitting and receiving data packets
2. decoding data packets and checking them
for valid addresses before passing them to
the upper layers of the OSI model
3. detecting errors within data packets or on
the network

CSMA/CD
• When a station wishes to transmit, it checks the
network to determine whether another station is
transmitting.
• If network is free, the station proceeds with the
transmission.
• While sending, the station monitors the network
to ensure that no other station is transmitting.
• If a transmitting node recognizes a collision, it
transmits a jam signal so that all other nodes
recognize collision.
• All transmitting nodes then stop sending for a
backoff time (randomly 0 .. 2n - 1 of 51.2ms).

The Saigon CTT
NIC: Layer 2 functions
• Logical link control (LLC): communicates
with upper layers in the computer
• Naming: provides a unique MAC address
identifier
• Framing: part of the encapsulation
process, packaging the bits for transport
• Media Access Control (MAC): provides
structured access to shared access media
• Signaling: creates signals and interface
with the media
The Saigon CTT
Bridge
• Connects network segments.
• Make intelligent decisions about whether
to pass signals on to the next segment.
• Improve network performance by
eliminating unnecessary traffic and
minimizing the chances of collisions.
• Divides traffic into segments and filters
traffic based on MAC address.
• Often pass frames b/w networks operating
under different Layer 2 protocols.

LAN Switch
• Switches connect LAN segments.
• LAN switches are considered multi-port
bridges with no collision domain.
• Use a MAC table to determine the segment
on which a frame needs to be transmitted.
• Switches often replace shared hubs and
work with existing cable infrastructures.
• Higher speeds than bridges.
• Support new functionality, such as VLAN.

LAN Switch: Micro-segmentation
The Saigon CTT
Benefits of LAN Switch
• No collision domain, because of microsegmentation.
• Low latency levels and a high rate of
speed for frame forwarding
• Increases the bandwidth available on a
network
• Is performed in hardware instead of in
software, it is significantly faster.
• BUT: All hosts connected to the switch are
still in the same broadcast domain.
The Saigon CTT
LAN Segmentation
The Saigon CTT
Why segment LANs?
• Isolate traffic between segments.
• Achieve more bandwidth per user by
creating smaller collision domains.
• LANs are segmented by devices like
bridges, switches, and routers.
• Extend the effective length of a LAN,
permitting the attachment of distant
stations.
The Saigon CTT
Segmentation with bridges
The Saigon CTT
Segmentation with bridges (cont.)
• Bridges increase the latency (delay) in a
network by 10-30%.
• A bridge is considered a store-andforward device because it must receive
the entire frame and compute the cyclic
redundancy check (CRC) before
forwarding can take place.
• The time it takes to perform these tasks
can slow network transmissions, thus
causing delay.
The Saigon CTT
Segmentation with switches
The Saigon CTT
Segmentation with switches (cont.)
• Allows a LAN topology to work faster and
more efficiently.
• Uses bandwidth so efficiently, the
available bandwidth can reach to 100%.
• Ease bandwidth shortages and network
bottlenecks (such as client-server).
• A computer connected directly to an
Ethernet switch is its own collision
domain and accesses the full 10Mbps.
The Saigon CTT
Segmentation with routers
The Saigon CTT
Segmentation with routers (cont.)
• Routers operates at the network layer
• Routers bases all of its forwarding
decisions on the Layer 3 protocol
address.
• Routers ability to make exact
determinations of where to send the data
packet.
• Router operate with a higher rate of
latency.
