Peer-to-peer is a type of network design where all devices support roughly equivalent capabilities.
Peer-to-peer networking (also known simply as peer networking) is in contrast to client/server networking, where certain devices have responsibility for providing or
"serving" network information and other devices consume or
otherwise act as "clients" of those servers.
Peer to peer is a simple network of two or more computers. Two computers can be connected directly too each other via the network cards using what is known as a cross over cable or to allow more than two computers to comunicate with each another, a device called a switch is required. All the computers in the simple network need to be connected to the switch via a network cable. The computers also have to be members of the same workgroup and have IP addresses within the same net and sub net range. In order to see folders and files on other computers, shares have to be created.
A workgroup utilizies a peer to peer networking model.
Yes, peer to peer can be implemented in linear bus topology.
A peer to peer model is used in a workgroup
no, it does not. not unless you use it for peer to peer sharing, or double networking.
No. A Domain uses a Client/Server networking Model. A Workgroup uses a peer-to-peer networking model.
Almost all modern Operating Systems support peer to peer networking.
It can be set to both Lan's typically use server based networking, but a Lan can have no server at all, just workstations that link together.
The client-server topology.
False
Peer-to-Peer
Almost all modern day operating systems support peer to peer networking, and are usually the standard network protocol after a new installation.
It is when you connect 2 computers with a LAN cable
