Error: command failed: Cannot change the MTU on the VLAN port "a02-12" to be greater than the MTU of the port hosting it
 
List the details of VLAN port "a02-12" and the port hosting it using the "network port show -node node -port a02, a02-12 -fields ipspace, broadcast-domain" command
If port "a02-12" is in a broadcast domain, use the "network port broadcast-domain modify" command to modify the MTU to be at least 9000.
If port "a02" is not in a broadcast-domain,use the "network port modify" command to modify the MTU to be at least 9000
Then,if VLAN port "a02-12" is in a broadcast domain, use the "network port broadcast-domain modify" command to modify the MTU to be 9000.
If VLAN "a02-12" is not in a broadcast domain, use the "network port modify" command to modify the MTU to be 9000
