Two types of peer-to-peer networks exist that are:
• Pure peer-to-peer Network:
All Peers act as equals mean to say that there is no dedicated server, all behaves equally
• Hybrid peer-to-peer Network:
It act as the client¬server model because it has a central peer act as server that keeps information on peers and responds to requests for that information. Central server (peer) knows what resources are shared and what are free. They are also responsible for hosting management of available resources.

the peer to peer is that one in which the client and server machine connected directly, for peer to peer we can use the TCP protocol, that is peer to peer protocol,
in OSI layer we have the physical and datalink layer and network layer is peer to peer process.
There are two types of Network Config, they are peer to peer or Client based.
Peer-to-peer network otherwise known as P2P network
There are two main types of networking: 1) Peer to peer network : In this network all network resources are evenly shared , between all the users. All users in the network have equal administrative privileges. 2) Server client network: This is a network where there is only 1 central point in a network that supplies the network resources, this point has administrator privileges in the network and controls the whole network.
A client-server network better than a peer-to-peer network because it allows centralized control. This includes centralized user management and enforcement of centralized security measures.
In a so called peer-to-peer network. There's no server or "master-computer", all computer are peers with equal rights and possibilities
