I don't know about 4097, but 4096 is what you used to tag on a vswitch port to pass a full copy of your uplink port to a VM (i.e. to pass all tagged vlans).  It would be the same as configuring a dvportgroup of type 'vlan trunk' and setting '0-4096' in the 'vlans' field.

Observium  23.9.13005 Community Edition

shows under PORTS --> VLANs
two VLAN which are out of IEEE 802.1Q Range (0-4095)

VLAN ID            VLAN Name
4096            vlan4096        31
4097            VLAN 4097

after klicking on the VLAN Names
it shows for both VLAN-Names all LAN Connects of our VMWare ESXi Hosts

we got 2 older ESXi Hosts (v6 level)
and 4 new ESXi Hosts  (v8 level)

an of course NO ESXi has a VLAN ID 4096/4097

Is this some kind of misinterpretation?
