Parameters
text: Interface description, a case-sensitive character string of 1 to 240 characters. The string can include
case-sensitive letters, digits, special characters such as tilde (~), exclamation point (!), at sign (@), pound
sign (#), dollar sign ($), percent sign (%), caret (^), ampersand sign (&), asterisk (*), left brace({), right
brace (}), left parenthesis ((), right parenthesis ()), left bracket ([), right bracket (]), left angle bracket (<),
right angle bracket (>), hyphen (-), underscore(_), plus sign (+), equal sign (=), vertical bar (|), back
slash (\), colon (:), semi-colon (;) quotation marks ("), apostrophe ('), comma (,), dot (.), and slash (/),
spaces, and other Unicode characters and symbols.
When you specify an interface description, follow these guidelines:
• Each Unicode character takes the space of two regular characters.
• To use Unicode characters or symbols in an interface description, install the specific input method
editor and log in to the device through remote login software that supports the character type.
• When the length of a description string reaches or exceeds the maximum line width on the terminal
software, the software starts a new line, possibly breaking a Unicode character into two. As a result,
garbled characters are displayed at the end of a line.

# Set the description for Layer 3 VE interface Virtual-Ethernet 1/0/1 to out-interface.
