what does number of uplink means exactly in vds

Hi

can you say me clearly what does uplink means during vsphere distributed switch creation?

i imagine it is mention how many physical adapter i want use from each host

is that correct ?

for example i have 20 host in my cluster and want use 2 network adapter for vmkernel esxi managment and 2 network adapter for use my vms in this mode i had to select 4 for number of uplinks during vds creation?

Please mark helpful or correct if my answer resolved your issue.

Yes, that's exactly it, no matter for which portgroups you will use the uplinks.
