A piddling more info on what sort of network and what you want it to exercise would be a large help.

Are the machines connected to a switch? Do they need Internet access?

Hi,

Make certain to connect these reckoner into on Switch or router.

If you desire to setup a P2P network between two or more machines, Windows ten makes information technology piece of cake. Setting upwardly a P2P network makes information technology possible to share data with other PCs, or fifty-fifty a printer via the Internet. To ensure both machines tin can run into each other, all you demand to practice is ensure both machines are in the same Workgroup. To do that:

Press Windows key+10 to bring up the hidden quick admission menu, and select System and then the Change button. Enter your workgroup name. Repeat the aforementioned stride on all the computers yous intend to network together. Restart when prompted. Make sure both machines are connected.

Launch File Explorer on the Taskbar and click Network. You should see the other computer(south) appear in Network Explorer. If not, you'll get prompted to Plow on network discovery and file sharing. Depending on the type of network connection, click the advisable choice. Press F5 on your keyboard or the refresh push button in the Address bar for the window to populate with bachelor computers and resources.

Honey Kate, could you review my trouble:

I am developing P2P application in .Internet using PNRP protocol. I have already checked tons of materials concerning PRNP and P2P (And so, Microsoft blog etc). Just still can`t solve the issues with clouds. And can`t notice pace -by-step educational activity for proper setting up the Clouds to get peer name resolving. Everything works perfectly on local automobile (registering and resolving ). But cloud state for Global and Local always Alone (if i brand some changes sometimes turns to virtual and synchronizing just ended up as Lone). And as issue peer names registered on ane machine is non visible on other machine in local network. Ipv6 is supported.:

Scope Id     Addr   Country             Name

----- ----- ----- ---------------- -----

3      ix      ane Solitary            LinkLocal_ff00::%9/eight

three      5      one Virtual           LinkLocal_ff00::%five/viii

i      0      1 Alone             Global_

The actions I tried (win x and win 7):
- disabled firewall for all networks. -not a bargain
- turned on (state: running) and fix to Automatic:
  - DNS Client
  - Function Discovery Resource Publication
  - Function Discovery Provider Host
  - SSDP Discovery
  - UPnP Device Host
  - Peer Name Resolution Protocol
  - Peer Networking Grouping
  - Peer Networking Identity Managing director
  - PNRP Auto Proper noun Publication Service
- Group Policy Editor --> Administrative Templates --> Microsoft Peer-to-Peer Networking Services --> Global Clouds
  - Turn Off Multicast Bootstrap --> disabled
  - Turn Off PNRP cloud cosmos --> disabled
  - Prepare PNRP cloud to resolve only --> disabled
  - Set the Seed Server --> Enabled (leaved empty) and for Linc Local --> Not configured.
As result yet can`t run into registered names of other machines in local network. and resolve these peer names. Cloud states - Alone.Ping seed Global_failed (probably because Toredo is not supported anymore?). I also checked it with other people and there is the same problem.
