Class A network braodcasting
I am working at a place that uses a private network on a class a network. This network is fully switched. I am curious if the switches will stop tcp/ip broadcasts from propigating to the entire network with a 10.0.?.0 address with a 255.0.0.0 snm. I personally like to see subnets simular to the way that sites are set in AD.

No, it won't. Switches doesn't stop broadcasts except to ports on different VLANs and your network is just one massive network. The moment you get something like a broadcast storm your whole network is going to come to a halt

hmmmmmm
switches forward broadcasts, If you have a vlan to vlan setup with a router in the middle then the broadcasts do not get flooded to next hop.
