description (Interface)
Congures a textual description of an interface.
Syntax
description string
Parameters string — Enter a text string for the interface description (up to 240 characters).
Default Not congured
Command Mode INTERFACE
Usage Information
• To use special characters as a part of the description string, enclose the string in double quotes.
• Spaces between characters are not preserved after entering this command unless you enclose the entire
description in quotation marks (“text description”).
• Enter a text string after the description command to overwrite any previous text string that you previously
congured as the description.
•
The shutdown and description commands are the only commands that you can congure on an interface
that are a member of a port-channel.
• Use the show running-configuration interface command to view descriptions congured for
each interface.
• The no version of this command deletes the description.
