Client-Server Network:
Client-server network:
Network in which one or more computers act as a server, and the other computers (clients) on the network request services from the server.
Client-Server
Computers connected together to create a network which fall into two categories: clients (workstations) and servers.

The Server |
| Computer on a network that requests resources from the server. Also called a workstation. |
Computer that controls access to
the hardware, software, and other resources on a network, and provides
a centralized storage area for programs, data, and information. Note: Server can be a mainframe computer used in a network environment. |
