Bug #3306: Add description support for ifconfig(8)
http://bugs.dragonflybsd.org/issues/3306#change-14191

* Author: tuxillo
* Status: In Progress
* Priority: Normal
* Category: Userland
* Target version: 6.2
* Start date: 2021-11-12
----------------------------------------


Is there a chance the 'ifconfig NIC description XXX' functionality
will sync with the FreeBSD ? This is a fairly popular option.

<pre>
# ifconfig vlan1 description vm1-vlan
ifconfig: description: bad value
</pre>

OpenBSD also has a similar capability[1], as NetBSD as well[2]

Thanks!
