Configuring SNMPv3 on the Switch
Specifying, Displaying, and Clearing an Interface Alias
You can specify, display, and clear an interface alias. The length of the alias can be up to 64 characters.
Note The set snmp ifalias command cannot be used in binary configuration mode. You must use the text file
configuration mode when entering this command or the interface alias is not saved in NVRAM.
To specify, display, and clear an interface alias, perform this task in privileged mode:
These examples show how to specify, display, and clear an interface alias:
Console> (enable) set snmp ifalias 1 Inband port
ifIndex 1 alias set
Console> (enable)
Console> (enable) show snmp ifalias 1
ifIndex ifName ifAlias
---------- -------------------- ---------------------------------
1 sc0 Inband port
Console> (enable)
Console> (enable) clear snmp ifalias all
Console> (enable)
