Viewing CAM Usage
View the amount of CAM space available, used, and remaining in each partition (including IPv4Flow and Layer
2 ACL sub- partitions) using the show cam-usage command in EXEC Privilege mode
Display Layer 2, Layer 3, ACL, or all CAM usage statistics.
EXCE Privilege mode

The following sample output shows the consumption of CAM blocks for Layer 2 and Layer 3 ACLs, in addition
to other processes that use CAM space:
