One other thing. There's no such thing a the "correct token". There is one
token that gets passed around the ring and grabbed by a host wishing to
transmit. When the transmission is completed, the token is put back on the
ring, for the next host etc. A token has absolutely nothing to do with
what gets passed through a "gateway.
