Specialized computers that manage network resources and allow computers access to the network are called?

Servers


What specialized computers manage network resources and allow computers access to the network?

File servers do those things. There are specialized servers as well, for example web servers, database servers, remote access servers, fax servers--the list goes on and on. But file servers are the backbone of providing access and managing files and who has access to what resources at which times.BTW. Access to the network is usually referred to as Authentication. And Rights or Security Management is usually what controls access to files, printers, and other resources.


How do you refer to a collection of computers connected together that allows sharing of resources?

Networked computers.


What are specialized computers that manage network resources and allow computers to access the network?

Its not a Router.. they only manage traffic on the network. Servers are specialized COMPUTERS that manage network resources and ALLOW computers access to the network.. BINGO! Sounds like you are talking about a "Router". A router manages and direct traffic on your local network. Routers make your connection faster and easier. It also makes your local network more secure!


What is a group of computers connected together and share resources?

Local Area Network (LAN) allows two or more computers to access the internet through a single router and, by creating a shared folder/directory, to share data between any computer connected to the LAN.

He computers in a lab on a floor of a building would be connected using a .?

He computers in a lab on a floor of a building would be connected using a local area network (LAN). This setup typically involves Ethernet cables or Wi-Fi to facilitate communication between the computers and shared resources, such as printers and servers. A router or switch may be used to manage the data traffic within the network. This allows for efficient data transfer and collaboration among users in the lab.
