Hello There, In this article, i am covering how to migrate the ESXi host switch from N-VDS to VDS 7.0 switch in NSX-T 3.2.x version. When using N-VDS as the host switch, NSX-T is represented as an opaque network in vCenter Server .

You can migrate your host switch to vSphere Distributed Switch (VDS) 7.0 for optimal pNIC usage and manage the networking for NSX-T hosts from vCenter Server . When running NSX-T on a VDS switch, a segment is represented as an NSX-T Distributed Virtual Port Groups. Any changes to the segments on the NSX-T network are synchronized in vCenter Server. We have an NSX-T environment running with NSX-T 3.2.2.1 version. this environment was designed and implemented with NSX-T 2.x version and that time we used the N-VDS as host...
