Interface Access, System Information, and Friendly Port Names
Using Friendly (Optional) Port Names
Using Friendly (Optional) Port Names
This feature enables you to assign alphanumeric port names of your choosing
to augment automatically assigned numeric port names. This means you can
configure meaningful port names to make it easier to identify the source of
information listed by some
Show
commands. (Note that this feature augments
port numbering, but does not replace it.)
Configuring and Operating Rules for Friendly Port
Names
■ At either the global or context configuration level you can assign a unique
name to any port on the switch. You can also assign the same name to
multiple ports.
■ The friendly port names you configure appear in the output of the
show
name [ port-list ] , show config , and show interface < port-number > commands.
They do not appear in the output of other show commands or in Menu
interface screens. (See “Displaying Friendly Port Names with Other Port
Data” on page 6-18.)
■ Friendly port names are not a substitute for port numbers in CLI com-
mands or Menu displays.
■ Trunking ports together does not affect friendly naming for the individual
ports. (If you want the same name for all ports in a trunk, you must
individually assign the name to each port.)
■ A friendly port name can have up to 64 contiguous alphanumeric charac-
ters.
■ Blank spaces within friendly port names are not allowed, and if used,
cause an
invalid input error. (The switch interprets a blank space as a name
terminator.)
■ In a port listing,
not assigned
indicates that the port does not have a name
assignment other than its fixed port number.
