I was thinking that although you can have multiple stations that believe
they have the token, there is still only ONE actual token.
If I read what Pricilla wrote correctly I am in error and that there ARE in
fact cases where you may have more than one token on a ring at a time.

Most everyone responded saying there could only be one token multiple data
frames. You are saying for test proposes Cisco wants you to answer with
multiple tokens? So the way Cisco wants you to answer the question may not
be right?
