Bug Description
The algorithm used by the NetApp cDOT multi-SVM driver for choosing
a physical port on which to create logical interfaces (LIFs) is too
simplistic, which can result in the selection of ports that won't
work at all or which are far inferior to other choices. A complete fix would
improve the port selection query, sort ports by speed, and allow
the user to override the port selection via a regex setting in the
manila.conf file.

It would be nice to use the broadcast-domain (subnet) function that came into ONTAP 8.3.
When creating a share the user could specify the subnet (or maybe the driver selects the appropriate subnet based on share-network) and create the LIF on the correct physical ports.
The NetApp admin would be in charge to create broadcast-domains previously.
