Every computer that is connected to a local area network or LAN should have an Ethernet card. For wireless networks, computers should have a wireless adapter.
they all need to be recognized by the host, with an ip address congruent with the host and/or instead of having the workgroup name it needs to be sub name of the host. for instance the host name would be Skybox-Red001, then every other PC that connects will have something like skybox-red002 inregards to the ip address.

A network card, or network adapter as it is sometimes called, allows a computer to connect to a network of other computers. These devices will usually have both a physical layer and a data link layer. Ethernet devices will most often have an 8P8C socket where the network cable can be connected.
A computer that is not part of any network, typically Local Area Network, is considered stand-alone computer. Please note that, depending on the situation, a computer that is not part of LAN, but has access to the internet may or may not be conisdered a stand-alone. The term stand-alone is usually by computer security people. A computer that is not part of LAN is usually configured in such a way that all unnecessary ports/services that can allow access to the computer are blocked in order to secure it.
A stub network is a computer network, or part of an internetwork, with no knowledge of other networks, that will typically send much or all of its non-local traffic out via a single path, with the network aware only of a default route to non-local destinations.

Network Interface Card (NIC)
Noun A network protocol that allows a user on one computer to log on to another computer that is part of the same network.
It refers to a special computer that users on the network can access to carry out a particular job.

An intranet is a network that is internal to an organisation. This is the opposite of an internet which is a network between organisations. The answer is therefore no, you do not install an intranet on a computer. The computer is either part of the intranet or it is not. It's not something you can install.
A network node is similar to a router, and a network station is the access point for the network (computer, cell phone, smartphone, mainframe computer, tablet, etc.). Network nodes are part of the network infrastructure, similar to routers, they forward the information along on the network to the intended recepient.
It is called a network. If there are computers are connected to each other in the same building or immediate area, then they are considered to be part of a Local Area Network (LAN). If they are connected to other LANs around the world, then they are part of a Wide-Area Network (WAN). A famous WAN many are familiar with is the Internet.
Yes. A cluster is a group of computers connected by a local network to a central server which facilitates communication and issues work to each individual computer.
A network administrator is responsible for the daily operation of a company's computer network. Many types of organizations hire network administrators, including schools, government, banks and technology companies. Depending on the size of the company, a network administrator may be solely responsible for a company's computer systems, or may be part of a team. Positions can be full-time, part-time or contract.
