Usage Information
Important Points to Remember:
• To use special characters as a part of the description string, you must enclose
the whole string in double quotes.
• Spaces between characters are not preserved after entering this command
unless you enclose the entire description in quotation marks (“desc_text”).
• Entering a text string after the description command overwrites any previous
text string that you previously configured as the description.
• The shutdown and description commands are the only commands that you
can configure on an interface that is a member of a port-channel.
• Use the show interfaces description command to display descriptions
configured for each interface.
