NetBox does not permit the use of VLAN IDs 0 or 4095 because these are reserved per the IEEE 802.1Q spec. Even if you have gear in place that allows it to be configured, I would strongly encourage you not to use it, as most platforms disallow its configuration in accordance with the protocol definition.
