Hey everyone!
Quick question that’s been bugging me—are subnetted devices located together, or can they be totally spread out geographically? Like, if I subnet a network, does that mean all those devices gotta be in the same building or even the same rack?
Or can subnetting actually help separate stuff across different locations? I’ve heard mixed things, and tbh, some docs make it sound like it’s all about physical proximity, while others say it’s more about logical grouping.
Kinda confused—anyone got real-world examples where subnetted devices *aren’t* located together? Or is that just asking for trouble?
Thanks in advance! 🚀
*(Also, sorry if this is a noob question—still getting the hang of networking!)*
