Wi-Fi is generally handled as one flat subnet on an entire campus/site with broadcast/multicast suppression so that you don't have roaming problems which would happen if you need to roam to a new subnet.<br><br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Actually, I've been using pooled /20 subnets for years, which was considered best practice for campus networks at the time it was implemented.
