What is a subnet?

Question

What is a subnet?

SAMUEL RUFUS · Accepted Answer

A subnet is a smaller, segmented portion of a virtual network’s IP address space that helps organize and isolate resources within that network

SAMUEL RUFUS · Answer

A subnet is a logical subdivision of a larger IP address network, used to improve performance and security. In the context of cloud providers like Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Azure, an Availability Zone (AZ) is a separate, isolated geographic location, while a subnet is a logical range of IP addresses that resides entirely within a single AZ. You cannot have a subnet that spans across multiple AZs.
