arbitrary Token

The arbitrary token encapsulates data for the audit trail. It consists of four fixed fields and an array of data. The fixed fields are: a token ID that identifies this token as an arbitrary token, a suggested format field (for example, hexadecimal), a size field that specifies the size of data encapsulated (for example, short), and a count field that gives the number of following items. The remainder of the token is composed of one or more items of the specified type. The arbitrary token appears as follows:
