This is subtly incorrect. A *Multi-Headed* MLD presents one or more devices to one or more hosts. A *Multi-logical Device* presents one or more devices to one or more upstream devices (such as a switch).

So please change "one or more hosts" to "one or more upstream devices". With that change you may add Reviewed-by: Gregory Price ~Gregory
