{"draft":"","doc_id":"RFC0917","title":" Internet subnets ","authors":["J.C. Mogul"],"format":["ASCII","HTML"],"page_count":"22","pub_status":"UNKNOWN","status":"UNKNOWN","source":"Legacy","abstract":" This memo discusses subnets and proposes procedures for the use of subnets, including approaches to solving the problems that arise, particularly that of routing. A subnet of an Internet network is a logically visible sub-section of a single Internet network. For administrative or technical reasons, many organizations have chosen to divide one Internet network into several subnets, instead of acquiring a set of Internet network numbers. This RFC suggests a proposed protocol for the ARPA-Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for improvements.
