Detailed explanation-1: -If your personal computer is connected to a network, it is called a network workstation (note that this is different form the usage of the term workstation as a high-end microcomputer). If your PC is not connected to a network, it is referred to as a standalone computer.
Detailed explanation-2: -Host Name: The unique identifier that serves as name of your computer or server can be as long as 255 characters and consists of numbers and letters.
Detailed explanation-3: -To connect to the Internet and other computers on a network, a computer must have a NIC (network interface card) installed. A network cable plugged into the NIC on one end and plugged into a cable modem, DSL modem, router, or switch can allow a computer to access the Internet and connect to other computers.
