Important Points to Remember:

To use special characters as a part of the description string, you must enclose the whole string in double quotes.

Spaces between characters are not preserved after entering this command unless you enclose the entire description in quotation marks (desc_text).

Entering a text string after the description command overwrites any previous text string that you previously configured as the description.

The shutdown and description commands are the only commands that you can configure on an interface that is a member of a port-channel.

Use the show interfaces description command to display descriptions configured for each interface.
