Network Issue - Might be really simple but not able to figure out the settings

I have vmnic2 and vmnic3 mapped to vDS, which are uplink1 and uplink2.

But in properties of one of the VLAN's, uplink3 also shows up as one of the Active Uplinks. Why does this happen? Shouldnt we see only uplink 1 and 2 here?

Hi there! It seems you have an onverride configured. You can change the uplinks and teaming from the dVPortGroup configurations.

Here is how you do it Configure NIC Teaming, Failover, and Load Balancing on a Distributed Port Group or Distributed Port

I'm not entirely sure if i got this right.
You see different vlans? if that's the case, please run a Network health check on the vDS to check if VLANs are correctly propagated (VMware Knowledge Base )

Also, as lucasbernadsky​ you should check your vDS load balancing and teaming policy

Hope that works

Warm regards
