SUMMARY

https://community.cisco.com/t5/switching/cisco-9300-switch-show-interfaces-status-displays-connected-t/td-p/4591464
The colon isn't followed by just whitespace. In the example case, the status including additional text is 'connected: TDR running'.
The additional text gets truncated so the patter match is a colon following status, any char including space for the message, and a space before the VLAN field.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

EXPECTED RESULTS

when I use the following regex in place of the line containing :?\s+:  (line 24)
  ^\s*${PORT}\s+${NAME}\s+${STATUS}:.*\s${VLAN_ID}\s+${DUPLEX}\s+${SPEED}\s*${TYPE}\s*$$ -> Record
I get what I would expect:
      "GigabitEthernet3/0/16": {
        "duplex": "auto",
        "shutdown": "false",
        "description": "asdfqwerzxcv",
        "state": "reserved",
        "port_name": "GigabitEthernet3/0/16",                                                                                   "activation_status": "on",
        "vlan": "1137",                                                                                                         "speed": "auto"
      },              

ACTUAL RESULTS

   "error": "Error processing interface output in TextFSM"
