ports.
The add-port and del-port commands modify the attached ports of the given DATAPATH (which can
be found in the output of show). The INTERFACE argument must be a Linux interface name.
The add-internal-port command creates a Linux interface connected to the given DATAPATH. This
interface can have an IP address assigned to it and can generally be used like a normal net?
dev, but traffic to and from it will flow through the datapath.
