Thanks Ruscal! I am fairly new to subnetting but know the basics I try watching the CBT nugget, TS and VTC video tutorials to get the hang of it never had to deal with it in the workplace though.

We recently acquired a 2nd warehouse 2 miles down the block from the existing one. 50 of the 120 employees are going to be moving into that space each with a pc and ip connection. Currently we are using one subnet for all 120 users plus another 20 or so IP's for equipment. How would I go about breaking out the subnets so the network would run smoother. Let's say there were 6 departments with 20 ip's related to each. Also would it be worth breaking the network up into smaller networks and if so why? Should I break up my network virutually or physically?

Subnetting a network of 120 users in two locations.

Network design and methodology, also known as network architecture, is the design of a communication network. It is a framework for the specification of a network's physical components and their functional organization and configuration, its operational principles and procedures, as well as data formats used in its operation. In telecommunication, the specification of a network architecture may also include a detailed description of products and services delivered via a communications network, as well as detailed rate and billing structures under which services are compensated.

Network Architecture

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
