Setting up subnets and routing

Setting up subnets and routing

Subnetworking and routers become important features as your organization's networking needs grow. Subnetworking lets you divide up your pool of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses so you can split those addresses across several physical networks within your organization. Routing provides a means of passing information from one physical network to another.

This section describes how to set up a UnixWare® system to route packets from one network to another, as well as how to assign addressing and network masking to implement subnetworking.
