Subnetting

Subnetting divides networks into smaller subnets to improve performance and security in Linux networking. It organizes IP addresses within IP addressing schemes, preventing conflicts and efficiently utilizing address ranges. Use route -n to view routing tables and route add -net xxx.xxx.xxx.x/xx gw yyy.yyy.yyy.y to add subnets. Essential for complex networking environments.
