Variable Length Subnet Mask (VLSM) is a technique used in IP network design to create subnets with different subnet masks. VLSM allows network administrators to allocate IP addresses more efficiently and effectively, by using smaller subnet masks for subnets with fewer hosts and larger subnet masks for subnets with more hosts.
VLSM (Variable Length Subnet Mask) is a technique that allows network administrators to divide an IP address space into subnets of different sizes, rather than dividing it into subnets of the same size.
Variable Length Subnet Mask (VLSM) is a subnet -- a segmented piece of a larger network -- design strategy where all subnet masks can have varying sizes. This process of "subnetting subnets" enables network engineers to use multiple masks for different subnets of a single class A, B or C network.
To efficiently use subnetting, we can use Variable-Length Subnet Mask (VLSM). With Variable-Length Subnet Mask (VLSM), we can allot the closest required number of IP addresses into a subnetwork in our LAN. We don’t need to use a /23 subnet mask in all of our subnets, for example.
Variable Length Subnet Mask (VLSM) allows us to create subnets with different sizes. This lesson explains how to quickly calculate these subnets.
This chapter removes that restriction by introducing variable-length subnet masks (VLSM). VLSM simply means that the subnet design uses more than one mask in the same classful network.
VLSM stands for Variable Length Subnet Mask. VLSM is a subnetting technique that allows network admins to allocate IP addresses more efficiently using different subnet masks for different network segments.
