Supported VLANs

The switch supports VLANs in VTP client, server, and transparent modes.
VLANs are identified by a number from 1 to 4094. VLAN IDs 1002 through 1005
are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs. VTP only learns normal-range
VLANs, with VLAN IDs 1 to 1005; VLAN IDs greater than 1005 are
extended-range VLANs and are not stored in the VLAN database. The switch
must be in VTP transparent mode when you create VLAN IDs from 1006 to 4094.

Although the switch supports a total of 255 (normal range and extended
range) VLANs, the number of configured features affects the use of the
switch hardware.

The switch supports per-VLAN spanning-tree plus (PVST+) or rapid PVST+ with
a maximum of 128 spanning-tree instances. One spanning-tree instance is
allowed per VLAN. See the "Normal-Range VLAN Configuration Guidelines"
section for more information about the number of spanning-tree instances and
the number of VLANs. The switch supports only IEEE 802.1Q trunking methods
for sending VLAN traffic over Ethernet ports.
