peer-to-peer network. All computers are peers and no computer has control over
another computer. It is generally used in small companies as they are not expensive.
 Domain or Server-based networks: In this type of network, a central server is
located to store the data, applications, etc of the clients. Network admin uses one or
more computer as a server and provide all accesses, security permission to all other
computers in a network
