What does NMI mean?

Network Maskable Interrupt
Non-Maskable Interrupt
New Modular Interface
Network Module Interface

The correct answer is: Non-Maskable Interrupt

NMI stands for Non-Maskable Interrupt, which is an interrupt that cannot be ignored by a computer's CPU and must be responded to immediately. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately represent what NMI stands for or its purpose. Option A, Network Maskable Interrupt, is not a commonly used term and does not accurately describe what NMI is. Option C, New Modular Interface, does not relate to computer hardware and is not commonly used in the tech industry. Option D, Network Module Interface, is also not a commonly used term and does not accurately describe NMI. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
