If it's like a 3560's SDM, be careful:  A connected subnet is 4
"indirect IPv4 routes" -- it stores a CEF receive entry for the network
address, broadcast address, assigned IP, and then the CEF attach for the 
actual netblock.

And even though "directly-connected IPv4 hosts" is listed under the "unicast
routes" prefix, it isn't counting connected networks.  Each connected subnet is
a glean in the "directly-attached" section, and each IP -> ARP address is an
adjacency in the "directly-attached" section, so it's really more a
limitation on the amount of ARP entries the switch can store.
