Values from `0` to `255` are reserved for internal use by The HDF Group for filters that are part of the HDF5 library itself.

Values from `256` to `511` are available for testing new VOL connectors.

Values from `512` to `32,767` are reserved for filters managed by The HDF Group but are nominally requested, developed, and supported by third parties.

Values from `32768` to `65535` are reserved for non-distributed uses (e.g., internal company usage) or for application usage when testing a feature. The HDF Group does not track or document the usage of filters with identifiers from this range.
