Host (also known as "network host")

Explanation:

A host is a computer or any other device which communicates with other hosts on the network. There may include clients and servers on a network that send and receive the data.

On the TCP/IP network, every host has a host number with which adding the network identity creates a unique IP address. Hosts communicate using the transmission control protocol (TCP) and user datagram protocol (UDP).
