Active Monitor
<networking> A process in an IBM token ring network which
ensures a token is present on the ring, removes circulating
frames with unknown or invalid destinations, and performs
introductions between machines on the ring.

token ring
A computer local area network arbitration scheme in which
conflicts in the transmission of messages are avoided by the
granting of "tokens" which give permission to send. A station
keeps the token while transmitting a message, if it has a
message to transmit, and then passes it on to the next
station.
Often, "Token Ring" is used to refer to the IEEE 802.5 token
ring standard, which is the most common type of token ring.

Token Ring
Token Ring is a computer networking technology used to build local area networks. It was introduced by IBM in 1984, and standardized in 1989 as IEEE 802.5.
It uses a special three-byte frame called a token that is passed around a logical ring of workstations or servers. This token passing is a channel access method providing fair access for all stations, and eliminating the collisions of contention-based access methods.
Token Ring was a successful technology, particularly in corporate environments, but was gradually eclipsed by the later versions of Ethernet.
