Explanation:

The default number of logical ports for a vSwitch is 56. However, a vSwitch can be created with up to 1016 ports in ESX Server 3.0. You can connect one network adapter of a virtual machine to each port. Each uplink adapter associated with a vSwitch uses one port. Each logical port on the vSwitch is a member of a single port group. Each vSwitch can also have one or more port groups assigned to it.
