In RUCKUS ICX switches, certain VLAN IDs are reserved for system functions and cannot be used for user-defined VLANs. Specifically, the following VLAN IDs are reserved:
VLAN 0: Reserved for priority tagging.
VLAN 1: Default VLAN for untagged frames.
VLAN 4095: Reserved and cannot be used.
VLAN 4094: Reserved and cannot be used.
VLAN 4093: Reserved and cannot be used.
This totals to 5 reserved VLAN IDs.
These reservations are standard across many networking devices to ensure proper network operations and to avoid conflicts with system-level processes. It's important to note that while VLAN 1 is the default VLAN, it can be reassigned if necessary, but caution should be exercised to avoid disrupting network management and control traffic.
