Adding e0M port to a broadcast domain fails with the following error:
 
::*> network port broadcast-domain add-ports -broadcast-domain mgmt -ports node1:e0M
 
     Error: command failed: Port "node1:e0M" cannot be used because it is currently the home port or current port of a LIF.
To view LIFs with a specified home port,use the"network interface show -home-node <nodename> -home-port{<netport>|<ifgrp>}"
command.
To view LIFs with a specified current port,use the "network interface show -curr-node <nodename>-curr-port {<netport>|<ifgrp>}" command.
