VLAN ID Ranges

VLANs ID is divided into either a normal range or an extended range.
Normal Range IDs
- 1 – 1005
- 1002 – 1005 are reserved for Token Ring and FDDI VLANs

Extended Range IDs
- 1006 – 4094
- Designed for service providers
- Have fewer options than normal range VLANs
- Stored in the running configuration file
Cisco catalyst 2960 switch supports 255 normal and extended range VLANs.
