Adding a Description for an Interface
You can add a description about an interface to help you remember its function. The description appears
in the output of these privileged EXEC commands:
show configuration
,
show running-config
,
and
show interfaces
.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to add a description for an interface:
Use the
no description
interface configuration command to delete the description.
This example shows how to add a description on a port and how to verify the description:
Switch#
configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Switch(config)#
interface gigabitethernet0/2
Switch(config-if)#
description Connects to Marketing
Switch(config-if)#
end
Switch#
show interfaces gigabitethernet0/2 description
Interface Status Protocol Description
Gi1/0/2 admin down down Connects to Marketing
Configuring SVI Autostate Exclude
The switch supports a maximum of 64 switch virtual interfaces (SVIs). Configuring SVI autostate
exclude on an access or trunk port in an SVI excludes that port in the calculation of the status of the SVI
line state (up or down) status even if it belongs to the same VLAN. When the excluded port is in the up
state, and all other ports in the VLAN are in the down state, the SVI state is changed to down.
At least one port in the VLAN should be up and not excluded to keep the SVI state up. You can use this
command to exclude the monitoring port status when determining the status of the SVI.
Command

Step 4
end
Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 5
