To use Unicode characters or symbols in an interface description, install the specific input
method editor and log in to the device through remote login software that supports the character
type.
•
When the length of a description string reaches or exceeds the maximum line width on the
terminal software, the software starts a new line, possibly breaking a Unicode character into two
and creating garbled characters at the end of a line.
Usage guidelines
Configure a description to describe the function or connection of a VLAN or VLAN-interface for easy
management.
Examples
# Change the description of VLAN 2 to
sales-private
.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vlan 2
[Sysname-vlan2] description sales-private
# Change the description of VLAN-interface 2 to
linktoPC56
.
<Sysname> system-view
[Sysname] vlan 2
[Sysname-vlan2] quit
[Sysname] interface vlan-interface 2
