In each case, the device is the host for the interface. A host device is a
node on one end of its host/interface link, and its interface to the Data
Highway II link is a node on the other end of the host/interface link.
However, to the other nodes of the Data Highway II link, the host device
and its interface, combined, are accessed as a single node of the Data
Highway II link.
