1. Network Models Overview of Different Network Models

2. Different Network Models There are two models of computer networks: Client-Server Model Peer-to-Peer Model Hybrid

3. Client-Server Model One or more computers work as servers, others as clients. Server controls the whole network. Used to store data and programs. May share resources like printers. Server is more powerful, performs most processing. Client requests services, server provides them.

5. Dedicated Server Network Dedicated servers perform specific tasks (e.g., file server, print server). File server is used to store and manage files Print server is used to manage printers and printing tasks Network server manage network resources

6. Advantages of Client-Server Model Reduces data traffic volume on the network. Provides faster responses to clients. Uses less powerful computers as clients.

7. Disadvantages of Client-Server Model Expensive due to costly servers. Network operations stop when server goes down.

8. Peer-to-Peer Model

10. Advantages of Peer-to-Peer Model Easy to setup. Easy to maintain. No expensive server needed. Suitable for small offices (ten or fewer computers).
