The maximum number of Device servers per Application server is 40. Network Configuration Manager can support up to 50,000 devices in a single deployment.

Note: To increase performance of Network Configuration Manager Environments with a high number of device changes, it is advisable to setup Network Configuration Manager using a larger sizing setup than is required. For example, if a large number of device changes will occur on a 500 device environment, use the 5K device sizing requirements when you setup your Network Configuration Manager environment. Refer, Sizing_Sheet_for_NCM_10.1.1 available at docs.vmware.com for further recommendations.
