I would like to setup my two Cisco 3560 switches with separate subnets for workstations, servers, and VPN clients (ISA Server). &nbsp;The switches will be connected via a Cisco SFP Interconnect cable.<br />
<br />
Do I need a VLAN for each subnet? &nbsp;If I setup 10.0.1.0, 10.0.2.0, and 10.0.3.0 I will need a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0 for each subnet to talk to each other, correct? &nbsp;How do I configure the switches to talk to each other using the cable? &nbsp;Is there a good guide to setting up the switches in this manner?<br />
<br />
I really don't want overkill. &nbsp;I simply need to expand the range of IP addresses available to all computers, and segmenting by subnet makes the most sense to me. &nbsp;I am new to Cisco, so pointing me in the right direction is all I ask.<br />
<br />
Thanks!

Setting up separate subnets for workstations and servers

A router is a networking device that forwards data packets between computer networks. Routers perform the "traffic directing" functions on the Internet. The most familiar type of routers are home and small office cable or DSL routers that simply pass data, such as web pages, email, IM, and videos between computers and the Internet. More sophisticated routers, such as enterprise routers, connect large business or ISP networks up to the powerful core routers that forward data at high speed along the optical fiber lines of the Internet backbone. Though routers are typically dedicated hardware devices, use of software-based routers has grown increasingly common.
