Fixed length subnet masks (FLSM) assign all subnets within a network the same subnet mask, limiting flexibility. Variable length subnet masks (VLSM) allow different subnet masks to be used within the same network, improving efficiency by allowing various subnet sizes. VLSM enhances flexibility over FLSM by enabling networks of different sizes for diverse addressing needs within an organization.
