I would even be satisfied with a ifconfig_${IF}_descr= shorter version of it or both.
Thanks guys.

Separate ifconfig_IF_description will be simpler to use.
I was also insisting on this..
+pluknet@
Sergey, maybe we could reconsider this stuff and add separate _description field?

Yeah thats pretty much what I’m doing right now. Attempting to match up
some interfaces and throw a valuable description on each interface. With
vlan interfaces I have not been successful at anything but manual
configuration thus far.

Matter of fact … could someone commit this ?
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=156675
No clue why it was closed for something that is so simple to do.
It was already merged (R223858). Looking at /etc/network.subr on a
10.0-RELEASE system shows the eval line. So, it looks like one can just
add " description something cool to describe interface" to the end of the
ifconfig_IF= line.
Not as neat and organised as having a separate ifconfig_IF_description
variable to set, but still very much workable.
Thanks for the pointer in the right direction. Now to play with it at
work. :)
