What is a subnet? | How subnetting works

When a bigger network is divided into smaller networks, to maintain security, then that is known as Subnetting. So, maintenance is easier for smaller networks. For example, if we consider a class A address, the possible number of hosts is 224 for each network, it is obvious that it is difficult to maintain such a huge number of hosts, but it would be quite easier to maintain if we divide the network into small parts.

Uses of Subnetting
Subnetting helps in organizing the network in an efficient way which helps in expanding the technology for large firms and companies.
