Detailed explanation-1: -Because users can control access to files and resources on their computers, network administration isn’t controlled by one person. As such, peer-to-peer networks are generally used in small deployments and in situations where security isn’t a major concern, as in the case of home networks or small businesses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Key advantages of using a P2P network Easy file sharing: An advanced P2P network can share files quickly over large distances. Files can be accessed anytime. Reduced costs: There is no need to invest in a separate computer for a server when setting up a P2P network.
Detailed explanation-3: -Does not need an expensive server as individual workstations are used to access files. Files are stored in a centralised location, meaning it is easier to backup.
