In computing, a network interface is a system's (software and/or hardware) interface between two pieces of equipment or protocol layers in a computer network. A network interface will usually have some form of network address.〔https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/servlet/JiveServlet/previewBody/2810-102-1-7611/primch5.pdf〕 This may consist of a node Id and a port number or may be a unique node Id in its own right. Network interfaces provide standardized functions such as passing messages, connecting and disconnecting, etc. ==Examples== * Computer port (hardware), an interface to other computers or peripherals * Network interface controller, the device a computer uses to connect to a computer network * Network interface device, a demarcation point for a telephone network * Network socket, a software interface to the network * Port (computer networking), a protocol interface to the network 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「network interface」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
