Need help understanding with routing between networks and subnets.

Hi,


I'm trying to get to grips with the logic between routing between network and subnets.

 

I understand that if I create two different networks.

 

i.e.

 

  • vmnet1 (live)
  • vmnet2 (testing)

 

Then I would need to implement some kind of routing device between the two of them. So that a vm in vmnet1 could communicate with a vm in vmnet2.

 

Is that correct?

 

But would I still need to implement a routing device if I created a subdivision of a network?

 

i.e.

 

  • I created one network called vmnet1.
  • And broke that network down to include two subnets.
  • One subnet tasked for Sales, and the other for Amin. 

 

So would I need a routing device to facilitate communication between these subnets?

 

I'm trying to work out how others would do it.

 

Some large organisations could have multiple subnets, but would they have multiple routers on their lan?

 

Thanks
