VLANs and subnets are two different concepts. A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is a logical grouping of users and/or devices within a physical LAN. It is used to separate traffic from different departments or users and provide them with their own broadcast domain.
A subnet is a segment of a larger network. It is used to break down a large network into smaller, more manageable pieces and to assign IP addresses to each subnet. This allows for easier routing and better network performance. Subnets are typically based on the Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) system.
