  • I am certainly not an expert by any stretch. But here are my reasons: Ability to isolate some “sketchy” IOT devices into an IOT only vlan, where they are not allowed to access the rest of the network, only the internet and incoming traffic from the other vlans. Having a “clean” vlan/subnet for servers and services where I can give out static IPs without worrying about collisions with client devices



  • No. But segregation into vlans has advantages. As this comes with new adresses anyway, might as well tidy up the adress space entirely.

    In the end 10.20.20.10 feels much neater than 192.168.174.10.

    But yes, you are right, technically the 192.168.xx.yy adress space works the same and has plenty of space for home use.
