Computer network devices also known as communication devices and they constitute a data communication network. These devices are routers, switches, hubs, LAN cards, gateway, modems, hardware firewall, CSU/DSU, ISDN terminals and transceivers. In an Ethernet or WAN network, the data communication cannot be performed without these devices. Being an IT professional or a network administrator, you must have the good understanding of these devices.

∙ 13y agoComputing Devices that help Computers connect to Network & functions when connected to Network (Network Printers) are called Network Devices.
Most widely used Network Devices are:
Routers: Helps connecting different Networks.
Switches: Helps connecting devices in a Network.
DSL Modems: Helps connecting to Internet through Service Providers.

What are devices that enable the nodes on a network to access the network and communicate with each other?
Servers
Are devices that enable the nodes on a network to access the network and communicate with each other?
Servers
Function of network?
Network is defined as a group of autonomous systems that are connected to each other. Computers in a network can communicate with each other.
If you have implemented a network where each device provides shared files with all other devices on the network. what type of network do you have?
Peer-to-peer
What describes a public network?
Computers that are connected to each other create a network. These networks are often configured with "public" internet Protocol (IP) addresses -- that is, the devices on the network are "visible" to devices outside the network (from the Internet or another network). Networks can also be configured as "private" -- meaning that devices outside the network cannot "see" or communicate directly to them.

Does each computer at a library have a different IP Address?
Yes, all devices on a network must have a unique IP address or you will have an IP conflict and one of the devices will have its network connection disabled.
Which network topology will allow all devices to continue to communicate with each other should a network cable fail?
double-ring
How are the devices connected on a bus network?
Devices on a linear bus network are connected to each other via a wire, usually through a T-connector device. In effect, the devices are "daisy chained" together without any other device connecting them.
A(n) is the hardware and software connecting electronic devices so they can communicate with each other.?
network
What are the two subcomponents of the CPU and explain the function of each?
computer hardware
Example of feedback?
This question refers to the communication between a network and networked devices. Feedback between a computer and the network occurs through 'pings,' when each acknowledge each other intermittently.
