These parameters are from the totem protocol implemented by the openais. The 
token is the timeout to determine the token loss. The join is the timeout to 
send the join message during the gather state. The consensus is the consensus 
timeout during the gather state. And the max_message is a flow control 
parameter ,which is the maxmium number of messages a node allowed to send 
during one token round.
You can refer the totem protocol to learn more.

That's my understanding, correct me if  I am wrong.
