N-VDS owns one or more of the physical interfaces (pNICs) on the transport node, and port configuration is performed from  NSX-T Data Center . 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...
