I'm trying to understand the distinction between a ring topology and a token ring topology in networking. Could someone explain the main differences between these two topologies?

Token Ring refers to a specific network protocol that operates within a defined framework.

On the other hand, ring topology describes the physical or logical layout of a network in a circular form.

A network can indeed utilize the Token Ring protocol, but this does not inherently mean it employs a ring topology.
