What are the requirement to make peer to peer network?

Answer 1

For an Ethernet network, each computer needs a network card and a network cable. You also need a switch - each computer will be connected to the switch.

For a wireless network, you don't need cables (that's the whole idea of wireless!), but each computer needs a wireless network card instead. Instead of the switch, you would use a wireless access point.

Answer 2

The requirements to make a peer to peer network are you need a unique name for each computer, a similar network protocol, and supported cabling by the network cards. The computers must have a way to communicate with each other.

Answer 3

In peer-to-peer networking there are no dedicated servers or hierarchy among the computers. All of the computers are equal and therefore known as peers. Normally each computer serves as Client/Server and there is no one assigned to be an administrator responsible for the entire network. Peer-to-peer networks are good choices for needs of small organizations where the users are allocated in the same general area, security is not an issue and the organization and the network will have limited growth within the foreseeable future.

Answer 4

In a peer-to-peer networking scheme, all participating devices must have a NIC interface to participate, plus any required cabling and/or network connectivity devices.
