I assume you're talking about a network.
On a token network, all of the computers wait to send data until they have the token. The token is a piece of data that travels around the network (picture all of the computers set up in a circle) giving each one a chance to send their data. After that computer has sent the data, the token moves on to the next.
It prevents data collision on the network.

Which topology uses token passing as an access method?
The Token Ring topology uses token passing as an access method. In this network configuration, a token, which is a small data packet, circulates around the network nodes, granting permission to the device holding it to transmit data. This method helps to prevent collisions and ensures orderly access to the network medium. Token passing can also be found in other protocols like Token Bus and Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI).
Which protocol uses Token Passing in a Bus Topology?
ri
How many tokens in ring topology pass simultaneously?
In a ring topology, only one token can pass through the network at a time. This token-passing method ensures that only one device can send data at any given moment, preventing collisions. Therefore, only one token is present in the ring network simultaneously.
What happens when token is lost in token ring topology?
Nobody knows......
What are the advantages and disadvantages of token ring?
Advantages of token ring: A point to point digital simple engineering, standard twisted pair medium is economical and easy to install, easily detected and corrected in case of cable failure, short frames as no padding of data is required in frame, works best even with heavy load. Disadvantages are: Require a monitor function, substantial delay in cases of low load, can require more wire to run than a bus architecture.

Which of the following is possible in token passing bus network?
doubleplexer
What technique do token ring networks use to determine what node gets to transmit over a shared channel?
token passing
What is access method for ring topologies?
In a ring topology, the access method used is typically token passing. In this method, a token is passed around the ring from one node to the next, allowing nodes to transmit data when they possess the token. This helps in controlling and managing the network traffic in a structured manner.
What type of network access method is used on a ring network?
Token passing
What is the purpose of a token in a token-passing network?
The token indicates current "ownership" of the ring, in that only one client at a time can have access to the network. If you don't have the token you can't do anything on the network. It also indicates the status of the ring, whether it is in use, available to transmit on, health status, etc.
Which access control method cirulates special transmission packets to control media access?
token passing
