No
Enable/Disable Interface
After the port is disabled, it cannot receive or send packets, but after the Ethernet interface is enabled, whether it can receive and send packets also depends on other setting, such as whether the peer Ethernet interface is enabled, the rates of the local and peer Ethernet interfaces, whether duplex mode matches with MDIX (Media Dependent Interface Crossover).
After the aggregation group interface is disabled, all member ports are disabled; after the aggregation group interface is enabled, we can disable or enable one member port separately.

The Null interface does not support the function of enabling and disabling the interface.
Configure Interface Description
The interface description is used for naming different interfaces, helping the user distinguish different interface types and actual service functions. It is convenient for the user to manage various interfaces.

Configure Statistics Interval of Interface Traffic
Different interfaces carry different service traffics. Adjusting the statistics interval of the interface traffic can help the user concern the history records of the interface traffic selectively, forecasting the future trend of the interface traffic more correctly. It is convenient for the user to analyze and adjust the bored services of the interface.
