the command is also a 'macro'.

thus once the command (set port host) is executed, you will not see it
anywhere in your config. You will see its individual components (portfast
on, trunk off, pagp off). Thus should you need to copy from one switch to
another - the word is be careful!

my 2cents

Good point.

Actually, 'set port host' is a macro that sets portfast (it
doesn't turn of spanning tree), and turns off trunking and
channeling. It's true that it's easier but I think it's vital
to know excatly what it does.
