Q.) What is Subnetting?

è Subnetting is the practice of dividing up a network into two or more networks. Subnetting enables you to ensure that information remains in the subnetted network or broadcast domain, which allows other subnets to maximize their speed and effectiveness.

è The goal of subnetting is to create a fast, efficient, and resilient computer network. As networks become larger and more complex, the traffic traveling through them needs more efficient routes. If all network traffic was traveling across the system at the same time using the same route, bottlenecks and congestion would occur resulting in sluggish and inefficient backlogs.

è Creating a subnet allows you to limit the number of routers that network traffic has to pass through. An engineer will effectively create smaller mini-routes within a larger network to allow traffic to travel the shortest distance possible.

Q.) Adavantages Of Subnetting .

è Advantages of subnetting include enhancing routing efficiency, network management control, and improving network security.

è Subnetting divides broadcast domains, meaning that traffic is routed efficiently, improving speed and network performance.

è A subnet mask ensures that traffic remains within its designated subnet. This reduces major congestion and reduces the load imparted on the network. With sub-networks, less distance needs to be traveled by data packets, enhancing network performance.

è With different subnets within your larger network, you can be more aware of route maps. These will help you to identify potential threats. With subnets, devices will not be able to access the whole network, meaning that companies can dictate which hardware and users have access to more sensitive data. Network security can be boosted.

è Sound organization is crucial within large businesses. This extends to your newtork and routers. With subnetting, companies have full control over their traffic and data packets.

Q.) Disadvantages

è Different subnets need an intermediate device known as router to communicate with each other.

è Subnetting ads complexity in network.

What is Subnetting used for?

Organizing a network in an efficient way is crucial for large firms and those companies seeking to expand technologically. IP addresses can be kept geographically localized meaning that a subnet can be used for specific staffing structures to maintain efficiency and order.

How does Subnetting work?

IP addresses help to identify the pieces of hardware connected to your network. To locate a particular device you would need to organize the IP addresses in a logical way. This is where subnetting excels as a tool to help you maintain efficiency across your network.

So , Lets Start your Practical And Follow the easy step To do the Procject …

Step 1: Start cisco packet tracer ..

Step 2 : make new file in your desired folder and name as practile 11

Step 3 : Now your screen looks like it ..

Step 4: now Implement the concept of dynamic routing (RIP, OSPF, BGP). we have to set up our devices so , lets setup …..

Step 5 : For Setup , we required Devices like

1.) Two PC

2.) Two Switch – PT

3.) Two Router – PT

Step 6 :- Now put your devices as shown in the figure

Step 7 :- Now we have to connect this whole devices through Guided Medium .

AS in cisco packet tracer we have facility of do the connection automatically, just we have to set end point devices . so we should use it ..

Step 8 :- After connection your setup look like this ….

Step 9:- At the Left side of the router the connection is made we can name that all left side area of router as “LAN 1” . Give IP Adress “ 192.168.1.1”

Step 10 :- At the Right side of the router the connection is made we can name that all left side area of router as “LAN 2” . and give ip address “ 192.168.2.0”

Step 11 :- after that we gave IP ADRESS to all pc

PC0 – 192.168.1.2

PC1 - 192.168.2.2

Step 12 : Now we have to assemble the router by connecting it by proper IP ADRESS so , lets start from by connecting it .
