<p>A method of transmiting isochronous and nonisochronous data in a computer network (10) in which multiple stations have respective input (11) and output (12) ports that are serially coupled together to form a loop includes the steps of: transmitting nonisochronous data from one station of the network and passing it through the remaining stations: periodically inserting into the nonisochronous data a lead control character (25) followed by a trail control character (38) and circulating the control characters twice around the network.</p> |
