Clients use client software to access email. |\n| Web | Web server runs web server software.\u003Cbr>Clients use browser software to access web pages. |\n| File | File server stores corporate and user files. The client devices access these files. |\n\n© 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. Cisco Confidential 19  \nNetwork Components  \nPeer-to-Peer  \nIt is possible to have a device be a client and a server in a Peer-to-Peer Network. This type of network design is only recommended for very small networks.  \n| Advantages | Disadvantages |\n| --- | --- |\n| Easy to set up | No centralized administration |\n| Less complex | Not as secure |\n| Lower cost | Not scalable |\n| Used for simple tasks: transferring files and sharing printers | Slower performance |\n\n© 2016 Cisco and/or its affiliates.
