I have to agree, I would not personally put more than around 200 devices in
a broadcast domain and that is pushing it.  If it is possible I would break
it into two or more VLANS and route between the VLANS, this help out in the
performance arena.

The theory behind it is this.  Would you, in a preplanned network
deployment, put over 250 devices in the same Broadcast domain?

hi all,

I read somewhere that there can only be a maximum of 254 devices in a vlan.
I'm currently redesigning a network that would have a vlan containing about
300 devices. Is the 254 restriction a design one? Please can someone
enlighting me on this issue.


regards,


Tunde
