set mls cef maximum-routes
When the maximum routes is exceeded or the allocated TCAM space for a protocol is full, a system
message (FIB_ALLOC_TCAM_FULL) displays. Note that because of the internal software allocation
scheme, the allocated TCAM space might be full before the maximum routes is exceeded.
Note The sum of the number of maximum routes for all protocols cannot exceed 256,000.
Note If the routes values for all protocols are set to 0, the bootup default is used. When you set the routes value
for one protocol to a non-zero value, the default value for the othe r pro toco l c ha nges to the rem a ini ng
size.
Examples This example shows how to set the maximum number of routes for IP unicast:
Console> (enable) set mls cef maximum-routes ip 220
Configuration change will take effect after next reboot.
