[f-nsp] CAM IP partition warning - Error Help MLXe X 1 million routes

[David Hubbard]

Is there a table that shows the values that are used for -X cards with
the ipv4-ipv6 and ipv4-ipv6-2 profiles?  Only one I could find seems to
be for the normal cards

gle=true

Trying to understand when you'd want to use ipv4-ipv6 vs ipv4-ipv6-2

Thanks,

David

James, 

Did you also change the cam-partiion profile you are using?  

router#sh cam-part | i profile
CAM partitioning profile: ipv4-ipv6-2

If you're using the default profile, it will still have the tcam carved
for 512k IPv4 routes.  

Also, updating the cam profile takes a reload. 

Regards,
Mike

	Hi All
	
	We are using both 5.3d and 5.4d on different devices and getting
the same errors on different MLXe X platform, which should support 1
million routes.
	
	CAM IP partition warning: total 524288 (reserved 0), free 26214,

	However we have increased the ip-route and ip-cache cam to
maximum:

	Whilst the error is for 500k routes the maximum is set to 1
million routes, what could be causing these errors ?
	
	Thanks
