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.
