Full-Duplex/Half-Duplex settings do not apply in a Token ring environment.

Duplex settings deterrmine whether or not a system can recieve and transmit 
at the smae time in a CSMA/_C_ollision _D_etect (Ethernet) environment.  
Token Ring Does not use CSMA/CD, but use token-passing instead.

On a Token Ring network, only one system transmits at a time, all of the 
others listen.

If a token ring is running at a speed of 16, should the duplex be full or
half.  If it's at half, what may be some problems as a result of it.
thanks.
