VLAN ID 4095

The VLAN ID 4095 is reserved for a very specific purpose. This particular VLAN ID is only to be used for “Virtual Guest Tagging” (VGT). It basically means that the VLAN ID is stripped off at the Guest OS layer and not at the portgroup layer. In other words the VLAN trunk (multiple VLANs on a single wire) is extended to the virtual machine and the virtual machine will need to deal with it.

Note:
VGT is not much used nowadays.
