In the context of computer networking, "domain" and "workgroup" are two different types of network organization models.
A domain is a type of network organization in which all computers and devices are controlled by a central server, known as a domain controller. Users and computers are all managed through the domain controller, which can enforce security policies, manage user accounts, and control access to resources on the network. Domains are typically used in larger organizations and are well-suited for centralized management and security.
A workgroup, on the other hand, is a type of network organization in which each computer is responsible for its own security and management. Users and computers in a workgroup can share resources, such as printers and files, but there is no central control or management. Workgroups are typically used in small networks, such as home networks or small offices, where central control is not necessary.
In summary, a domain is a type of network organization in which all computers and devices are controlled by a central server, while a workgroup is a type of network organization in which each computer is responsible for its own security and management.
