Description
If you have an interface on a switchport device, like the 7100, and reassign the interface to a discrete interface like an igb interface using the VGA or Serial console, the Status --> Dashboard and Status --> Interfaces pages will continue to use the old switchport monitor setting until you save and apply the interface, thus always showing the port as down after moving the cable. Since the Interfaces --> WAN/LAN/OPT/etc selection does not show a port monitor setting if it's using a discrete interface, there is no way to eliminate it without just saving the interface and applying.

Tested this on 23.05-RELEASE and it's still present in the release version like the RC.
