Token Ring is a networking protocol for Local area networks.
It uses token passing at the data link layer.
The token has two states, either it is free, or it is taken, and data follows.
When a computer has a message to send, it appends the message to the token, and sets the token state to taken.
Each workstation along the ring sees the message.
If the workstation was the recipient of the message, it sends a new empty token, otherwise it passes the token along.
Since the only way to send data is to wait for an empty token, there will be no collisions.
Token ring is the network that has fair access for all its connected workstations or host.
