Which of the following defines a node?

A. Any device with a connection to a network

B. Any device on wireless

C. Any device processing data

D. Any device with an address on a network

Solution

D is correct. A node is defined as any device with an address on a network (this will normally be an IP address).

A, B, and C are incorrect. A is incorrect because not every device touching the network has an address. B is incorrect because the media (wireless or wire) has nothing to do with it. C is incorrect because a computer (or any device) can process data without being connected to the network.
