In order to configure an extended VLAN you have to follow the guideline below:

  • Extended VLANs are used just like normal VLANs; only different range.
  • Extended VLANs must be configured on Switches that are in VTP Transparent mode only.
  • Extended VLANs can not be configured using VLAN database mode (only configuration mode).
  • Extended VLANs are saved in the configuration file.
