Subnetting and Subnet Masks
Subnetting divides a network address into sub-network addresses to
accommodate more than one physical network on a logical network.
For example:
A Class B company has 100 LANs (Local Area Networks) with 100 to
200 nodes on each LAN. To classify the nodes by its LANs on one
main network, this company segments the network address into 100
sub-network addresses. If the Class B network address is 150.1.x.x, the
address can be segmented further from 150.1.1.x through 150.1.100.x
