@peaceray Hello. Subnetting is not a standard security practice. It is a way to manage IP space. It does not add security, or prevent a machine from being secure. The first bullet point here says that a jump server is made more secure by part of a smaller subnet. That isn't true in anyway, shape, or form. In many cases, creating small subnets hurts more than it helps, or is suboptimal (see ipv6)
Can you explain why you re added that smaller subnets assist with securing jump servers?
You also added that ACLs can be used to choose who enters a network. But an ACL uses network signals only, and does not know who is sending them. This is another piece of misinformation you added.
You will notice this misinformation is unsourced. I'm going to remove it again, and hope you use the talk page before reading misinformation into this article. 2600:1700:12B0:3000:85A4:3E9A:69B1:D576 ( talk) 05:00, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
About 98,600,000 resultthat Google claims for "segmenting a network for security". Peaceray ( talk) 05:54, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
Removed a list of misinformation. I. E. Smaller networks are not more secure.
