[c-nsp] C6K_MPLS_LC-SP-5-TCAM_EXCEPTION: TCAM exception occured for MPLS, traffic will be software switched

[Tim Durack]

C6K, VS-S720-10G-3CXL, 15.1(SY), someone blew up the FIB. Last time I was
involved in such an "experiment", reload was the only recovery.

Logs claim the exception has been cleared.

Jun  3 22:59:26.790 UTC: %MLSCEF-SP-4-FIB_EXCEPTION_THRESHOLD: Hardware CEF
entry usage is at 95% capacity for MPLS protocol.

Jun  3 23:00:02.414 UTC: %C6K_MPLS_LC-SP-5-TCAM_EXCEPTION: TCAM exception
occured for MPLS, traffic will be software switched

Jun  3 23:15:02.712 UTC: %C6K_MPLS_LC-SP-5-TCAMEXPRECOVER: TCAM exception
recovered for MPLS, traffic will be hardware switched


Sup says the same:


RTR-1#show mls cef exception status

Current IPv4 FIB exception state = FALSE

Current IPv6 FIB exception state = FALSE

Current MPLS FIB exception state = FALSE


Not sure that I believe this.


(Config is Internet in a L3VPN vrf, default from transit, full routes from
peering.)


Thoughts?
