Before setting the cache size, the cache must first be enabled with the ethernet cfm linktrace
cache command.
If the cache reaches the maximum number of specified entries, or the size is set to a value less
than the current number of stored entries, no new entries are added. To add additional entries,
the cache size must first be increased with this command, or purged with the clear ethernet
cfm linktrace-cache command.

This example limits the maximum size of the link trace cache to 500 entries.
Console(config)#ethernet cfm linktrace cache size 500
