[f-nsp] CER: IPv6 Route ADD: CAM entry creation FAILED

On the CER, the equivalent of "show cam-partition usage" is "show
resource". I believe the IP entries include both IPv4 & IPv6.

"show default values" is also useful because you can see if your
"system-max ipv6-route" is high enough - the default is only 8192 and
your IPv6 DFZ table obviously won't fit if your system-max is set to
such a low value. We tend to run it at 262144 because system-max is a
fairly pointless feature anyway, it doesn't carve up your CAM, just
restricts certain features from over-consuming resources that are shared
with different features.

And, of course, after messing around with system-max you're going to
have to reload the device to apply the new settings.

Best regards,
Martijn
