Field Description
Total CAM space Total amount of space in the CAM block
Used CAM Amount of CAM space that is currently in use
Available CAM Amount of CAM space that is free and remaining to be
allocated for ACLs
Example
Example (show

test cam-usage
Verify that enough CAM space is available for the IPv6 ACLs you have created.

Usage Information
This command applies to both IPv4 and IPv6 CAM Profiles, but is best used when verifying QoS optimization for
IPv6 ACLs.
QoS Optimization for IPv6 ACLs does not impact the CAM usage for applying a policy on a single (or the first 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.
