How To Communicate With A Token Ring Network (Dihon)

Transcription

1 Token us Token -procedure: Only someone who possesses a certain ken (= bit sequence), may send. One example for a ken network: IEEE 80. Token us All stations should be treated equally, i.e. they have pass on the ken cyclically or this: logical ordering of all stations a ring In a bus pology, ordering is made regarding station addresses: 9 Usage e.g. as a field bus (eldbus in German) in industrial environments with a high degree of noise. Purpose: e.g. roboter control; a few masters, many slaves (they only listen). Data rate is not that important, but guarantees in response times are necessary Page Message Exchange in Token us Two types of messages are used: Token messages T ID, nextid ID Data messages M ID ID Data Token messages are used for passing on the sending permission station ID station nextid Data messages contain the data be sent Having the ken, a station is allowed send a message. After this (or if nothing is be sent) the ken is passed on. Traffic on the bus e.g.: T 5,7 M 7 T 7, M T, T, T,6 M 6 T 6,9 T 9,5 M 5 T 5,7 High overhead for ken exchange: 5 it times for each ken message (a full small size Ethernet frame)! In contrast that, in Token Ring networks only one bit is be switched 0, i.e. only one bit time for a ken message. Thus, the number of participating stations should be low, or the number of masters should be low, you can lerate very many slaves nextid Page Problems with Token us irst problem: a station leaves the logical ring Easy solution: the leaving station sends a message its predecessor indicating the new successor Second problem: a station comes in the logical ring To allow new stations join, in periodically intervals, a window is opened between neighbors, e.g. between 5 and 7. New stations with IDs 6 6 now can apply. Problem: conflict risk! Several stations could apply join in this window Conflict resolution: survival of the fittest. Consider last bits of the IDs: send a request join with a duration specified by the last bits of your ID: 00 send short 0 send longer 0 send even longer send longest If you hear anybody else sending longer than you, give up. If you survive without conflict, join. If there is no resolution (two or more stations are sending for the same time, no one is sending longer), repeat with the second-last bit pair, etc. Page Example Assume a global window. Competirs: Winner! In case of some configuration error, two identical IDs are present: after checking all pairs of the IDs, continue by adding random bit pairs. Page

2 Token Ring Token -procedure: Only someone who possesses a certain ken (= bit sequence), may send. based on standard IEEE 80.5 Token Ring the stations share a ring of point--point connections the ken is cyclically passed on particularly for rings suitably Token Ring (/6/00 Mbit/s) Characteristics: guaranteed access, no collisions very good utilization of the network capacity, high efficiency fair, guaranteed response times possible: multiple kens however: complex and expensive Passing on the ken Page 5 Token Ring Data Medium: twisted pair, coaxial cable or optical fiber Capacity of resp. 6 Mit/s (00Mb/s with optical fiber) Differential Manchester Code on layer The stations are actively attached, i.e. received signals are regenerated (same principle as for repeaters, therefore no restriction of the ring s expansion) Point--Point Connection Active connecr the ring the ring Page 6 Sending and Receiving Access within a Token Ring Initial state Data are received the ring serially Data addressed a connecr s station are copied Data are serially passed on along the ring Transmission state The ring is divided Own data are sent serially Data coming in the ring are evaluated by the station the ring the ring the ring the ring Example: sends station. waits for free ken (transmission authorization, -yte- Token).. changes free ken in an occupied one (occupied ken = frame header). Afterwards, station sends the frame. ( may send further frames, if the ken holding timer (default 0 ms) is not exceeded). terminates the frame and waits until the frame passed the whole ring and arrives again.. copies the frame. removes it the ring and produces a new, free ken. remove entfernen kopieren copy Page 7 Page 8

3 Access within a Multiple Token Ring rame ormat for Token Ring Same example: sends station If the ring is inactive, only the -yte-token (SD, AC, ED) circulates. If a station wants send, it sets a certain bit in this ken 0.. waits for free ken (transmission authorization).. changes free ken in an occupied one (occupied ken = frame header). Afterwards, sends the frame. ( may send further frames, if the ken holding timer (default 0 ms) is not exceeded). terminates the frame and produces a new, free ken immediately.. copies the frame. removes it the ring. remove entfernen kopieren copy ree ken, if a certain bit within AC is set. /6 /6 any DA SA Data CS rame End Delimiter Control (ED) (C) Access Control (AC) Start Delimiter (SD) End Delimiter (ED) rame Status SD and ED serve for marking the frame. They contain invalid sequences of the differential Manchester code. Access control contains the ken bit, further a monir bit, priority bits and reservation bits. rame control marks the kind of the frame: Data, control, yte Page 9 Page 0 rame ormat for Token Ring Ring Maintenance rame status contains confirmation bits A and C. If a frame arrives at the station with the destination address, bit A is set. If the station processes the frame, also bit C is set. When the sending station gets the frame back, it can see whether the receiving station is not working (A = 0, C = 0), if the frame was not accepted (A =, C = 0), or whether the frame was received correctly (A =, C = ). To protect against bit errors, both bits are doubly present. The addresses and the checksum are identical Ethernet. its of access control: Themonir bit serves for recognition of a second frame circulation Thepriority bits make possible several priorities. They indicate the priority of the ken. If a station wants send with priority n, it must wait for a ken of priority n or higher. Thereservation bits permit a station reserve the next frame for itself. If a station wants do this, it registers its priority in the reservation bits. This is only possible, if not already a higher priority is registered. During the next ken generation, the priority is copied in the priority bits. To check the correct function of the ring, a monir station is introduced. If this station crashes, another station is raised as monir station: if a station recognizes that the monir is inactive, this station sends a certain ken (CLAIM_TOKEN). This can be done by several stations simultaneously. If such a message arrives with a smaller ID then suppress it. If a message arrives with larger ID then pass it on. If a CLAIM_TOKEN message arrives with own ID: this station is the new monir. Tasks of the monir station: New generation of the ken after a ken loss Reaction ring collapse Removal of frame fragments Deletion of old, circulating frames or each problem an own ken is defined. Additionally if necessary also timers are used. Page Page

4 iber Distributed Data Interface (DDI) DDI is a high performance ken ring LAN based on optical fibers ANSI standard XT9.5 Data rates of 00 Mit/s Range of up 00 km (MAN?) Support of up 000 stations, with distances of maximally km Often used as ackbone for small LANs Host 80.5 LAN ridge DDI ring ridge 80. LAN Structure of DDI Wiring within DDI: optical fiber rings with opposite transmission direction During normal operation, only the primary ring is used, the secondary ring remains in readiness If the ring breaks, the other one (also called protection ring) can be used. If both rings break or if a station precipitates, the rings can be combined in only one, which has double length: Successor: DDI-II, supports besides normal data also synchronous circuit switched PCM data (speech) and ISDN traffic Variant: CDDI (Copper Distributed Data Interface), with 00 Mit/s over Twisted Pair Page Two classes of stations exist: (Dual Attachment ) can be attached both rings, the cheaper (Single Attachment ) are only attached one ring.

The clocks of all stations must run stable on at least 0.005%. With such a stability, frames with up 500 byte of data can be transferred without the receiver losing the clock pulse. = Dual Attachment = Single Attachment DAC = Dual Attachment Concentrar NAC =Null Attachment Concentrar SAC = Single Attachment Concentrar SAC y means of the concentrars several rings can be linked. Page 5 Procols The fundamental procols of DDI are similar IEEE 80.5 (ken ring): in order transmit data, a station must acquire the ken. Then it transfers its frame and takes it the ring when it returns it. Due the expansion of DDI, a single ken is unpractical. Therefore, DDI transfers in the multiple ken mode. Ring and station management also are similar IEEE 80.5, additionally a function for deviating traffic the protection ring is included. Page 6

5 Synchronous Transmission of Data Original transmission principle within DDI: Use of asynchronous frames, i.e. sending can be started any time. Additionally, with DDI-II also the use of synchronous frames for circuit switched PCM or ISDN data (telephony) is possible: every 5 µs a master station produces synchronous frames for reaching the 8000 samples / second necessary for PCM. every frame consists of 6 byte for non-circuit-switched data and up 96 byte for circuit switched data (up 96 PCM channels per frame). if a station once uses fixed slots in a frame, these are considered for it as reserved until the station releases them expressly (implicit reservation). unused synchronous slots of the frame are assigned on request any station.
