A workgroup utilizies a peer to peer networking model.
Peer-to-Peer
No. A Domain uses a Client/Server networking Model. A Workgroup uses a peer-to-peer networking model.
The Peer-to-Peer networking model.
In computer networking a work group is collection of computers connected on a LAN that share the common resources and responsibilities. Workgroup is Microsoft's term for a peer-to-peer local area network.
a network/workgroup
This is a peer-to-peer network, where all devices in the workgroup have equal status. In this model there is no central management of the network (or any network management at all).
A peer to peer network.
Configuring a workgroup is easy - give the workgroup and name and use that name in the workgroup section for the computer identification. The other choice is for a client-server (domain) based network. Therefore you only have two choices for computer identification; either as a workgroup or as a domain (client/server).
For homes and small offices, the most common model is peer-to-peer networking. A peer-to-peer network, also called a workgroup, is commonly used for home and small business networks. In this model, computers directly communicate with each other and do not require a server to manage network resources.
networking problems can happen any where in the OSI model. That's why its there to trouble shoot networking problems. Its really hard to say where they can happen
the main reason behind that is we can control sharing resources in domain,and as well as as we can use more no.of systems than in workgroup,and we can provide user permissinons in domain.
