We reported the same problem over a month ago and were told new code was
available which corrects this problem.  We subsequently obtained 9.0(1.10)
patch level which so far appears to be holding up, although rings don't
beacon all that often.  In general, this release has made the token ring
considerably more robust in reacting to events on the ring.
