Configures a description for the specified VLAN.
| vlan_name | Specifies the VLAN name. |
| vlan-description | Specifies a VLAN description (up to 64 characters) that appears in show vlan commands and can be read from the ifAlias MIB object for the VLAN. |
| none | This keyword removes the configured VLAN description. |
By default, the VLAN has no description.
The VLAN description must be in quotes if the string contains any space characters. If a VLAN description is configured for a VLAN that already has a description, the new description replaces the old description.
The following example assigns the description "Campus A" to VLAN vlan1:
configure vlan vlan1 description “Campus A”
