A stub network is one which only has one exit point to an other networks.
Packets from a stub network are usually default network routed out i.e.
there is no exacts routes in the routers routing tables only a path out.
The addressing of such a network is unimportant unless you are subnetting
and using a classfull routing protocol.
This is usually used in OSFP to simplify routing tables.

Hi all,
Sorry to bother you with a non-security question but,
does anybody know what is a stub subnet and how can we
calculate it given an ip address and a subnet mask ???
Thanks.
