regarding the max token length of longformer
In the encode_plus function  of the Tokenizer , there is a argument called max_length whose default value is 4096.
So is it possible to increase the max token length  beyond 4096 or the maximum value of max_length argument is 4096
Can anyone clear my doubt

Thanks in advance !!!!
Hi, @rkoystart 
I think this notebook will [help](https://github.com/allenai/longformer/blob/master/scripts/convert_model_to_long.ipynb)<|||||>@patil-suraj  so it means by default  the longformers model provided by huggingface supports maximum tokens of 4096 right ?
if suppose we want to pretrained model to support for even more longer sentences than 4096 we have to follow the instructions in the notebook you have mentioned above
