Issue

  1. Creation of vlan may result in the creation of a new broadcast-domain rather than adding them to an existing one:

::> vlan create -node Node-01 -vlan-name a4g-52                                                   
::> vlan create -node Node-02 -vlan-name a4g-52

::> network port broadcast-domain show
  
IPspace Broadcast                           Update
Name    Domain Name    MTU  Port List       Status Details
------- ----------- ------  --------------- --------------
<cluster config removed>
Default Default       1500  Node-02:e0M     complete
                            Node-01:e0M     complete
        Default-1     1500  Node-01:a4g     complete
        Default-2     1500  Node-02:a4g     complete
        Default-3     1500  Node-01:a4g-52  complete
        Default-4     1500  Node-02:a4g-52  complete

  1. Correcting this undesired configuration is a manual effort that requires deleting the new broadcast-domains and adding the ifgrp and vlan ports to the correct one.
