Consider the token ring network shown. Assume only Node $2$ has data to send over

shared channel of $500Kbps,$ where the bits travel at a rate of $100\frac{m}{s}$ and nodes

spaced apart by $5$ meters. All data frames are of size $2500$ bits and all tokens are of size

$200$ bits. One rownd consists of allowing all $4$ nodes a chance to transmit a

frame and the token retuming to Node $1.$ In this example, only Node $2$ has data

to transmit, so only one data frame would be transmitted during a round.

Determine the amount of time needed for one full round to complete, assuming thr

token starts at Node $1.$ Recall that a node can only transmit once it receives the toke

and then once its frame has traversed the entire ring, does it pass the token on to the

next node.
