Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A P2P network involves two or more computers that share individual resources, such as DVD players, printers and disk drives. Each computer acts as both client and server and directly communicates with other computers in the network.

Detailed explanation-2: -Each computer is both a client and a server and they share resources with other networked computers. Some major features of the P2P network include: Each computer in a P2P network provides resources to the network and consumes resources that the network provides.

Detailed explanation-3: -The primary difference between these two terms is that, in a peer-to-peer network, every node can ask for assistance and deliver services. While in a client-server network, the client nodes demand services and the server node answers with assistance.

Detailed explanation-4: -In peer-to-peer (P2P) networking, a group of computers are linked together with equal permissions and responsibilities for processing data. Unlike traditional client-server networking, no devices in a P2P network are designated solely to serve or to receive data.

Detailed explanation-5: -P2P Relationship In this model, one machine can act as both client and server in relation to another machine. This is typically accomplished by a custom piece of software that can perform both roles, determining which is necessary for a given task.
