Displaying Friendly Port Names with Other Port Data
You can display friendly port name data in the following combinations:
show name: Displays a listing of port numbers with their corresponding
■
friendly port names and also quickly shows you which ports do not have
friendly name assignments. (show name data comes from the running
config file.)
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.)
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.)
