IPv4 Subnetting

The main purpose of subnetting in IPv4 is to divide a large network into smaller, more manageable subnetworks to improve performance, security, and address allocation.

Subnetting helps reduce network congestion by dividing the network into smaller segments, allowing for more efficient data transmission and improved network performance.

Subnetting allows for better organization and management of IP addresses, as well as more efficient allocation of addresses to different network segments, leading to improved scalability and flexibility.
