Service Manual
QoS Optimization for IPv6 ACLs does not impact the CAM usage for applying a policy on a single (or the rst of several)
interfaces. It is most useful when a policy is applied across multiple interfaces; it can reduce the impact to CAM usage across
subsequent interfaces.
The following describes the test cam-usage command shown in the following example.
Term Explanation
Stack-Unit
Lists the stack unit or units that are checked. Entering all shows the status for all stacks.
Portpipe Lists the portpipe (port-set) or port pipes (port-sets) that are checked. Entering all shows the
status for linecards or stack units and port-pipes in the chassis. The port set value is from 0 to 0.
CAM Partition Shows the CAM prole of the CAM.
Available CAM Identies the amount of CAM space remaining for that prole.
Estimated CAM per
Port
Estimates the amount of CAM space the listed policy will require.
Status Indicates whether or not the policy will be allowed in the CAM.
