Using Friendly (Optional) Port Names
For a given port, if a friendly port name does not exist in the running-config file, the Name line in the
above command output appears as:
Name : not assigned
To Search the Configuration for Ports with Friendly Port Names. This option tells you which
friendly port names have been saved to the startup-config file. (The show config command does not
include ports that have only default settings in the startup-config file.)
Syntax: show config Includes friendly port names in a listing of all interfaces (ports)
configured with non-default settings. Excludes ports that have
neither a friendly port name nor any other non-default
configuration settings.
For example, if you configure port 1 with a friendly port name:
Figure 25. Example Listing of the Startup-Config File with a Friendly Port Name Configured (and Saved)
This command sequence saves the
friendly port name for port 1 in the
startup-config file, but does not do
so for the name entered for port 2.
In this case, show config lists only
port 1. Executing write mem after
entering the name for port 2, and
then executing show config again
would result in a listing that
includes both ports.
Listing includes friendly
port name for port 1 only.
