Changing the number of VLANs allowed on the switch

Syntax:

max-vlans1-2048

In the default VLAN configuration, the switch allows a maximum of 256 VLANs. Use this command to specify the maximum VLANs to allow, and specify any value from 1 to 2048.

If GVRP is enabled, this setting includes any dynamic VLANs on the switch. As part of implementing a new setting, you must execute a write memory command to save the new value to the startup-config file, and then reboot the switch.

NOTE: If multiple VLANs exist on the switch, you cannot reset the maximum number of VLANs to a value smaller than the current number of VLANs.
