Assigning ports to a logical switch
A port can be assigned to only one logical switch.
All ports are initially assigned to the default logical switch. When you create a logical switch, it has
no ports and you must explicitly assign ports to it.
When you assign a port to a logical switch, it is removed from the original logical switch and
assigned to the new logical switch.
