    Add name to switch port in Zabbix

    Hello, Is possible add description or name to port of switch monitored by Zabbix. Eg. interface name GigabitEthernet1/0/1 I wold like give the OutgiongInterface name. Is this possible ? I know that some modern switches have ability give name to port and after this I can read this via SNMP. But my switch are old and does´t have this functionality.
    Regards

    In some switches you can add a display-string or labrl, and zabbix grabs this label

          Good idea. But when I disable aitodiscover can I get information about port UP or DOWN ?

            The item is created, so I think the answer is YES.

            Just ensure that you have all the ports discovered.
