Difference Between VLAN and Subnetting


VLAN:

1. VLAN – VIRTUAL AREA NETWORK

2. VLAN is any broadcast domain that is partitioned and isolated in a computer network at the data link layer.

3. VLAN works by applying tags to network frames and processing those tags in network systems.

4.Create the appearance and functionality of network traffic that is physically located on a single network but acts as if it is split between separate networks

5. In this way, Vlan can keep the network application separate even though it is connected to the same physical network and without the need to deploy multiple cabling sets and network devices.


EXAMPLE:

In the figure above, there is a router connected to three switches, and each switch has many systems connected to many systems. So all End devices are connected to the same Local Area Network. So on this Network, the End device of any switch can access data from every end device in the network.

Let’s assume a scenario, you are a network administrator at a company called XYZ, you have three departments in your office

1.VLAN _ Admin- 3PC

2.VLAN _ Pro -3PC

3.Vlan _ Dev -6PC

So you are given a job to restrict communication between the three departments, i.e. the PC in the executive department can only communicate with systems in the same department. It should not access resources in the Pro or development department and in every department the same. what is the solution to this problem ??? reply VLAN

We can create three VLANs for each department and restrict access. This can be configured on every switch within the CLI

VLAN 100 – Admin-FE 0 / 2.0 / 3.0 / 4 (Interface used to connect the switch)

VLAN 200 – Pro-FE 0 / 2.0 / 3.0 / 4

VLAN 300 – Dev-FE 0 / 2.0 / 3.0 / 4.0 / 5.0 / 6.0 / 7

By doing this, we split the Network into three sub-parts without using routers or switches etc.

CODE:

Switch> en # Enable configuration

# Change configuration

Enter configuration commands, one per line. Finish with CNTL / Z.

Switch (config) #vlan 100 # create a VLAN and report any given number as 100

Switch (config-vlan) #name admin # report a name as an administrator

Switch (config-vlan) #exit # Exit VLAN config

Switch (config) #interface fastethernet 0/2 # interface will be added to VLAN 100

Switch (config-if) #switchport mode access # change switchport mode for access

Switch (config-if) #switchport access vlan 100 # command to access vlan 100

Switch (config-if) #exit

Switch (config) #exit

—————————————— For FE 0/3

Switch (config) #interface fastethernet 0/3

Switch (config-if) #switchport mode access

Switch (config-if) #switchport access vlan 100

Switch (config-if) #exit

Switch (config) #exit

—————————————- For FE 0/4

Switch (config) #interface fastethernet 0/4

Switch (config-if) #switchport mode access

Switch (config-if) #switchport access vlan 100

Switch (config-if) #exit

Switch (config) #exit

SUB CLOTHING

1. A subnet or subnet is a logical subsection of an IP network. The practice of splitting a network into two or more networks is called subnetting.

2. Computers belonging to a subnet are addressed with the same most significant set of bits in their IP addresses. This results in an IP address being logically divided into two fields: the network number or routing prefix and the remaining domain or host identifier. The resting area is an identifier for a particular host or network interface.

3. When the routing prefixes of the source address and the destination address are different, traffic is exchanged between subnets via routers. The router acts as a logical or physical boundary between subnets.

4. The benefits of connecting an existing network to a subnet vary with each deployment scenario. It is necessary to allocate address space efficiently in the address allocation architecture of the Internet using CIDR and in large organizations.


SUBNETING USES

TO REDUCE COST

– TO REDUCE IP WASTE

COMPANY – SALES, HR, DEVELOPERS, SUPPORT – 100, 200, 300, 400

HOME – DESKTOP, LAPTOP – 2 COMPUTERS.

CLASS C = 254-2 = 252 HOSTS WASTE.

THIS CAN BE AVOIDED BY SUB-CLOTHING.

ÖR: 255.255.255.0 – 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000 – 2 COMPUTERS

111111 – CONVERTING TO N / W

11111111.11111111.11111111.11111100

255.255.255.248 – SPECIAL SUBNET MASK

HOW SUB-GRINDING WORKS

CALCULATION PROCESS OF WASTE HOST BITS AND

CONVERTING THE WASTE MAIN FINISH INTO NETWORK BITS.

SCENARIO 1

SALES – 120

HR – 120

STAGE 1 : TO FIND CLASS

NUMBER OF COMPUTERS = 120 + 120 = 240 <254

WE CAN USE CLASS C

STEP 2: TO FIND THE ‘N’

‘N’ – number of bits to borrow

2 power n> = Number of Required Networks

2 power n> = 2

n = 0

2 power 0 = 1> = 2 wrong

n = 1

2 forces 1 = 2> = 2 true

n = 1 (number of bits to borrow)

STEP 3: TO FIND CSM

CLASS C

DSM – 255.255.255.0 – 11111111.11111111.11111111.00000000

CSM – 11111111.11111111.11111111.10000000 – 255.255.255.128

STEP 4: CALCULATION OF N / W AND HOST NUMBER

NO OF N / W = 2 power n

NUMBER OF HOST = 2 power h and -2

N / w number = 2 power 1 = 2 mesh

Number of Hosts = 2 power 7 and -2 = 128-2 = 126 hosts.

STEP 5: IP ASSIGNMENT

A + B = C + 2 = D – 1 = E

SALES

192.168.1.0 ————– 192.168.1.127

0 – A

126 – B

0 + 126 = 126 + 2 = 128 – 1 = 127

HR

192.168.1.128 —————- 192.168.1.255

128 – one

126 – B

128 + 126 = 254 + 2 = 256-1 + 255
