For Virtual Connect v1.34 and Virtual Connect v2.10, a maximum of 64 associated networks is supported
in each shared uplink set. All other versions support a maximum of 32 networks per shared uplink set. With
VC 2.30 and later, a maximum of 128 associated networks is supported in each shared uplink set. There is
also a limitation of 320 total networks that can be in use by a SUS within each VC module. Networks must
be counted within the 320 limit for each uplink within a SUS. Therefore, a SUS with two uplinks and 128
VLANs/networks on each uplink count as 256 networks in use.
