Using Friendly (Optional) Port Names
Feature
Configure Friendly Port Names
Display Friendly 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
