FLSM stands for Full Length Subnet Mask. It means all the subnets are of the same size. In FLSM, the subnet mask remains the same for all the subnets. 

VLSM stands for Variable Length Subnet Mask. It means the size of the subnet varies according to the needs. In VLSM, the subnet mask is different normally but it can be same for any two or more subnets depending upon the situation.
