ok so by changing our subnet mask to 255.255.0.0 i am able to have 65,000 plus nodes on 1 network.
so just to confirm i can have some workstations 192.168.0.10 talk to other workstation 192.168.20.10 right?
we are not getting super big. but we are getting big enough to go through 254 ip numbers.
so basically we need a router if talking to different subnet mask. but we don't need a router if everyone is on subnet mask 255.255.0.0 right?
just curious as to why it's good to separate the network into logical groups of computers by department? security? faster networking? |
