Figure 14.3 An illustration of three ATM switches and the forwarding table in each switch that allows a single VC to span the network. Only those table entries that correspond to the VC are shown.
Figure 8.10 (a) Arrows showing the directions that data flows around counter-rotating rings, and (b) the same network after a station has failed. After the failure, stations use the reverse path to form a closed ring.
Figure 8.9 The conceptual flow of bits during a transmission on a token ring network. Except for the sender, computers on the network pass bits of the frame to the next station. The destination makes a copy.
