Common Buffer Pool
Usage
One buffer pool exists for data buffers. These buffer blocks are pre‐
allocated as shown below:
•
2000 for FE: 2000 x 1696‐byte buffers were pre‐allocated for use by the
Forwarding Engine.
•
1000 for FE Frag: 1000 x 1696‐byte buffers were pre‐allocated for use by
FE Fragmentation.
•
2048 for Eth1: 2048 x 1696‐byte buffers were pre‐allocated for use by the
Ethernet Driver for Ethernet Port 1.
•
2048 for Eth2: 2048 x 1696‐byte buffers were pre‐allocated for use by the
Ethernet Driver for Ethernet Port 2.
•
2048 for Eth3: 2048 x 1696‐byte buffers were pre‐allocated for use by the
Ethernet Driver for Ethernet Port 3.
•
1536 for serial card: 1536 x 1696‐byte buffers were pre‐allocated for use
by the Serial NIM card.
•
Total:10680*1696 byte buffers: Total number of 1696‐byte buffers that
were pre‐allocated. There are 100 bytes of overhead per buffer, so the
actual amount of memory used is 10680 x 1796‐bytes.
