What Is a Virtual Network? What Is a Virtual Switch?
A virtual switch: Directs network traffic
between virtual machines and links to external networks.
Combines the bandwidth of multiple network adapters and balances traffic among them. It can also handle physical network interface card (NIC) failover.
Models a physical Ethernet switch: A virtual machine’s NIC can
connect to a port. Each uplink adapter uses
one port.External World

A virtual network provides the networking for hosts and virtual machines that use virtual switches.

Virtual Switch Connection Examples
More than one network can coexist on the same virtual switch, or networks can exist on separate virtual switches.
