We consider a star-network of $n=n_0+n_p$ spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles, whereinteraction between $n_0$ central spins and $n_p$ peripheral spins are of theXYZ-type. In the limit $n_0/n_p\ll 1$, we show that for odd $n$, the groundstate is doubly degenerate, while for even $n$, the energy gap becomesnegligible when $n$ is large, inducing an \emph{effective} double degeneracy.In the same limit, we show that for vanishing $xy$-anisotropy $\gamma$,bipartite entanglement on the peripheral spins computed using either a partialtrace-based, or a measurement-based approach exhibits a logarithmic growth with$n_p$, where the sizes of the partitions are typically $\sim n_p/2$. Thisfeature disappears for $\gamma\neq 0$, which we refer to as the\emph{anisotropy effect}. Interestingly, when the system is taken out ofequilibrium by the introduction of a magnetic field of constant strength on allspins, the time-averaged bipartite entanglement on the periphery at thelong-time limit exhibits a logarithmic growth with $n_p$ irrespective of thevalue of $\gamma$. We further study the $n_0/n_p\gg 1$ and $n_0/n_p\rightarrow1$ limits of the model, and show that the behaviour of bipartite peripheralentanglement is qualitatively different from that of the $n_0/n_p\ll 1$ limit.
