Computers connected over a private network.
1. In IP networks, a network sharing a particular subnet address. Subnetworks are networks arbitrarily segmented by a network administrator in order to provide a multilevel, hierarchical routing structure while shielding the subnetwork from the addressing complexity of attached networks. Sometimes called a subnet. See also IP address, subnet address, and subnet mask. 2. In OSI networks, a collection of ESs and ISs under the control of a single administrative domain and using a single network access protocol.
A network segment sharing a particular subnet address.
Network segment. In OSI, a collection of ESs and ISs under the control of a single administrative domain and using a single network access protocol. In IP, the sharing of a particular subnet address.
Within an ad network, a functionally independent network of advertisers and sites. Subnetworks are part of an ad network, but independently sell and manage their own inventory and can generate reports specific to the subnetwork only. A subnetwork can book ads on its own sites, but does not have permission to book ads on the ad network or other subnetworks in the ad network.
a part of a network (or internetwork), as is a segment , though the latter often has a more specific meaning in certain technologies
a portion of a network, or a network that is part of a larger internetwork
a representation within the OSI reference model of a real network, such as a carrier network, a private network, or a local area network (LAN)
a separately identifiable part of a larger network that typically represents a certain limited number of host computers, the hosts in a building or geographic area, or the hosts on an individual local area network
A logical division of a larger Internet Protocol (IP) network. Small offices will use only one subnet to provide addresses for all the devices on the LAN; large enterprise networks may use hundreds of subnets. Each subnet is a logically independent network, and therefore routers or Layer-3 switches are needed in order to allow devices on different subnets to communicate. Back
Collection of OSI end systems and intermediate systems under the control of one administrative domain and using a single network access protocol. For example, private X.25 networks, a series of bridged LANs.
An IP address range that is part of a larger address range. Subnets are used to subdivide a network address of a larger network into smaller networks. Subnets connect to other networks through a router. Each individual wireless LAN will typically use the same subnet for all of its clients. (See IP address, router). close
Any group of nodes that have a set of common characteristics, such as the same network ID.
a division of a project network diagram representing a subproject.
Activity of a main network represented by a detailed network. [D01935] NPMT See also Subnet. [D01936] A small network which forms a part of the project network. [D01937] CPMUSC 176-8 A section of the project, i.e. subproject, for which a separate network is developed. Usually represented as a single activity in the main network. [D03954] PNG
A network segment that is created to simplify addressing and is connected to the central network through a router, hub, or gateway.
A collection of end systems and intermediate systems under the control of a single administrative domain and utilizing a single network access protocol.
A group of computers that are a part of a larger network and whose IP address includes a subnetwork number.
Collection of equipment and physical media which can be used to interconnect other real systems for the purpose of communications. Subnetworks are bounded by intermediate systems operating at the network layer or above.
A section of a large network that functions as an independent network, but does not appear separate to remote networks.
In computer networks, a subnetwork or subnet is a range of logical addresses within the address space that is assigned to an organization. Subnetting is a hierarchical partitioning of the network address space of an organization (and of the network nodes of an autonomous system) into several subnets. Routers constitute borders between subnets.
