TABLE 9
Keyword
Optimizes resources for . . .
ipv4-min-v6
IPv4 routes in dual-stack configurations
ipv6-max-route
Maximum number of IPv6 routes
ipv6-max-nd
Maximum number of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery entries
The following describes the available command options (keywords) to optimize TCAM profiles,
available under the tcam keyword.
Options for optimizing TCAM profiles
TABLE 10
Keyword
Optimizes resources for . . .
default
Basic support for all applications
l2-ipv4-acl
Layer 2 and IPv4 ACLs
ipv4-v6-pbr
IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs and policy-based routing tables
ipv4-v6-qos
IPv4 and IPv6 ACLs and QoS
ipv6-v6-mcast
Multicast
l2-acl-qos
Layer 2 ACLs and QoS
Note the following conditions for TCAM profiles:
• TCAM profiles only affect ACLs, policy-based routing (PBR), QoS, and multicast entries, without
affecting other features, protocols, or hardware resources.
• The TCAM profile options (listed above) are not customizable or configurable, and they may not be
appropriate to all network designs.
• The following QoS features are optimized by TCAM profiles:
‐
Flow-based QoS and flow-based policing for Layer2/Layer 3 ingress and egress
‐
System Qos (VLAN-based) for Layer2/Layer 3 ingress and egress
‐
Auto NAS
‐
Storm control
‐
Flow-based SPAN and RSPAN, including VXLAN based
‐
Flow-based Sflow, including VXLAN based
• The following QoS features are not affected by TCAM profiles:
‐
All port-based QoS features (RED; PFC and legacy flow control; CoS mutation, DSCP
CoS, DSCP traffic class, DSCP mutation; scheduling, shaping, and port-based policing)
‐
Port-based SPAN and RSPAN
‐
Port-based Sflow
Configuring hardware profiles
The following examples illustrate the application of the hardware-profile command, which is executed
in RBridge ID configuration mode. The options for the route-table and tcam keywords are as listed in
the tables in the previous section.
