Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
1 to 256
Why it's wrong here
256 is the limit for some older platforms, but modern IOS-XE supports up to 1023.
- ✓
1 to 1023
Why this is correct
The ERSPAN ID range is 1 to 1023 on most Cisco IOS-XE platforms.
- ✗
1 to 4096
Why it's wrong here
4096 is the VLAN range, not ERSPAN ID.
- ✗
1 to 65535
Why it's wrong here
65535 is too large; ERSPAN ID is limited to 1023.
