Hi ,
Subnetting is defined as dividing a network into different
networks.for example class c range of ip address is
192.168.10.0 now this network is divided into 0 to 255
times into overall of 256 networks as below :
192.168.10.0;192.168.10.1;192.168.10.3;192.168.10.4.........
............................................................
............................................................
.......................................192.168.10.255 and
this concept is known as subnetting.In simple words
dividing a network in to different networks is called as
subnetting.

Answer / ganesh
subnetting is the process of dividing a large network into
smaller networks, called as subnets. These subnets may have
equal no. of hosts(FLSM) or unequal no. of hosts(VLSM).
subnetting is used to reduce the wastage of ip addresses in
an internetwork.
