Port Status and Configuration
Using Friendly (Optional) Port Names

to use ports A5 through A8 as a trunked link to a server used by a drafting
group. In this case you might configure ports A5 through A8 with the name
“Draft-Server:Trunk”.

config file.)
â– show interface <port-number>: Displays the friendly port name, if any, along
with the traffic statistics for that port. (The friendly port name data comes
from the running-config file.)
â– show config: Includes friendly port names in the per-port data of the
resulting configuration listing. (show config data comes from the startup-
config file.)
