[NetSIG] network segmentation

[Catherin Gregory]

Hi all...
Hope you are all doing ok.

Is not "network segmentation" the same as packet filtering?

Or is segmentation the same as segregation? Please enlighten me.
Thanks.

Segregation is typically achieved by a combination of firewalls
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_(computing)> and VLANs
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VLAN> (Virtual Local Area Networks).
Software-Defined
Networking <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software-Defined_Networking> (SDN)
can allow the creation and management of micro-segmented networks.
