Hello,
What is the number of VLANs supported by the hEX E50UG router and what is the number of VLANs per interface?
WAN how many vlans does it support 10-15?
THANKS

The hard limit is 4096 vLANs, because you can’t address any more. There may be a lower hard limit, but I suspect that there is more likely a soft degradation at an undefined level as performance falls off if you try using them all at once.
how many ports does it support practically not theoretically
how many does it support without giving errors
to be more explicit if I set 50 vlan it is ok to support
but if I set 250 it gives errors
both on lan and wan
The way you asked the question is odd (vlans per interface).
What is the real issue you are trying to solve?
As @DuctView said, there are 12 bits used to define the vlan id in use. That's 4096 (0-4095). However 0 and 4095 as they are reserved so they can't be used for user data.
What is your intended purpose of using vlan on the WAN interface?
While you can create vlans subinterfaces using ether1, that's usually only used when your internet or voip or iptv is being delivered via vlan tagged traffic.
The most common interface that vlans would be created on with a E50UG would be the bridge interface. The switch chip integrated into the E50UG's SoC supports 4096 accourding to this
Have you ever used vlans?
The router will let you configure a lot, but remember that all traffic between interfaces needs to be routed.
Your question is very similar to questions like "how many users will router x support" or "how many wifi clients can this AP support".
These aren't questions that can be answered without more information, such as "what will these users be doing" or "what will the wifi clients be doing, and what is the wifi noise floor"
Is your question theoretical or practical? Why are you asking? If you are an ISP, buy one and do your own testing.
