Chapter 6 Configuring SDM Templates
Configuring the Switch SDM Template
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Review the “Guidelines and Limitations” section on page 6-4.
DETAILED STEPS
After the system reboots, you can use the show sdm prefer privileged EXEC command to verify the new
template configuration. If you enter the show sdm prefer command before you enter the reload
privileged EXEC command, the show sdm prefer command shows the template currently in use and the
template that will become active after a reload.
EXAMPLE
This is an example of an output display when you have changed the template to the layer-2 template and
have not reloaded the switch:
Switch# show sdm prefer
The current template is "default" template.
The selected template optimizes the resources in
the switch to support this level of features for
8 routed interfaces and 1024 VLANs.
number of unicast mac addresses: 5K
number of IPv4 IGMP groups + multicast routes: 1K
number of IPv4 unicast routes: 9K
number of directly-connected IPv4 hosts: 5K
number of indirect IPv4 routes: 4K
number of IPv4 policy based routing aces: 0.5K
number of IPv4/MAC qos aces: 0.5K
number of IPv4/MAC security aces: 1K
On next reload, template will be "layer-2" template.
Command Purpose
Step 1
configure terminal Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2
sdm prefer {default |
dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 {default | routing
| vlan} | layer-2}
Specify the SDM template to be used on the switch:
The keywords have these meanings:
• default—Balance all functions.
• dual-ipv4-and-ipv6—Select a template that supports
both IPv4 and IPv6 routing.
– default—Balance IPv4 and IPv6 Layer 2 and Layer
3 functionality.
– routing—Provide maximum usage for IPv4 and
IPv6 routing, including IPv4 policy-based routing.
– vlan—Provide maximum usage for IPv4 and IPv6
VLANs.
• layer-2—Support Layer 2 functionality and do not
support routing on the switch.
Step 3
end Return to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 4
reload Reload the operating system.
