Hi Dan,

   i just checked the code.  that document is wrong.  while the
IDB limit was increased for the C7200 as a reflection of better
scalability, more CPU power, testing, etc, it was never increased
for the C7100 beyond 3000.  it is still at 3000 in 12.3 mainline
code.  i will file a bug doc on it.

cheers
