Command: name
no name
Function: Sets a name for the specified port; the “no name” command cancels the setting.
Parameters:
Command mode: Interface Mode
Default: No name is set by default.
Usage Guide: This command facilitates the management of the switch. The user can name the ports
according to their usage, for example, ports 1/1-2 are used by the financial department, and so can
be named "financial”; port 2/9 is used by the engineering department, and can be named
“engineering”; port 3/12 connects to the server, and can be named “Servers”. Thus, the usage of the
ports are obvious.
Example: Naming ports 1/1-2 as “financial”
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/1-2
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#name financial
