HELPPP PLEASE 30 POINTS You have been asked to propose a network design for a small business. The business wants it to be as cheap and low maintenance as possible. Security can be minimal, but the network must be able to support four computers that will share two printers and be able to accommodate another machine or two later. Suggest a network architecture and explain why.

Peer-to-Peer Architecture

Explanation:

In a peer-to-peer network, tasks are allocated to every device on the network. Furthermore, there is no real hierarchy in this network, all computers are considered equal and all have the same abilities to use the resources available on this network. Instead of having a central server which would act as the shared drive, each computer thats connected to this network would act as the server for the files stored on it.

Advantages: Does not require a dedicated server which means its less costly.

If one computer stops working, the other computers connected to the network will continue working.

Installation and setup is quite painless because of the built-in support in modern operating systems.

Disadvantages: Security and data backups are to be done to each individual computer.

As the numbers of computers increases on a P2P network... performance, security, and access becomes a major headache.
