Detailed explanation-1: -Each computer acts as both client and server and directly communicates with other computers in the network. In a P2P network, all computers on the network can access client devices directly connected to one specific computer on the network. The only requirement is a means of connection, such as a Wi-Fi router.
Detailed explanation-2: -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.
