Answer / kalpana
Splitting of larger networks into a smaller networks and also to reduce the wastage of IP addresses..
| Is This Answer Correct ? | 3 Yes | 3 No |
Subneting is the process of dividing a large network into
equal smaller parts for the purpose of:
1. Reduce network traffic.
2. Optimized network performance.
3. Simplified management.
Note:
In Sub netting, some of host bits are converted into
network bits.

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.
