Specifies the hardware route profile and maximum load-sharing path.

Syntax

profile route default

profile route route-enhance { hw_opt | multi_vrf | v4_fib_comp | v6_fib_comp } { off | on }

profile route maximum-paths{ 8 | 16| 32 | 64 }

Command Default

The default route profile is enabled.

Parameters

default

Specifies the default route profile, which supports 1 through 64 routes.

route-enhance

Specifies various route enhancement, which supports up to 1000 routes.

hw_opt: Specifies route enhancement for hardware optimization. Disabled by default.
multi_vrf: Specifies route enhancement for multiple VRF support (route scaling) on a non-default VRF.
v4_fib_comp: Specifies route enhancement for IPv4 FIB compression.
v6_fib_comp: Specifies route enhancement for IPv6 FIB compression.

{ off | on }

Disables or enables the specified route-enhance options. Be default, all options are disabled.

maximum-paths{ 8 | 16| 32 | 64

Specifies the maximum number of load-sharing paths.

Modes

Hardware configuration mode

Usage Guidelines

This feature is supported only on devices based on the Broadcom DNX chipset family. For a list of such devices, see "Supported Hardware".

For the new setting to take effect, you need to run the copy running-config startup-config to reload the device. Run this command during a maintenance window so that the profile changes are activated without interrupting normal network services.

The hw-opt option is not supported for SLX 9640.

To display the default and current number of routes supported for your device, run the show hardware profile command.

This command does not support a no form. Use the profile route default form of the command to restore the default setting.

Examples

The following example enables route enhancement with IPv4 FIB compression and 64 maximum paths on SLX 9640.

device(config)# hardware
device(config-hardware)# profile route route-enhance v4_fib_comp
**Warning: To activate the new profile config, please run 
'copy running-config startup-config' followed by reload system'.

device(config-hardware)# profile route maximum-paths 64
**Warning: To activate the new profile config, please run 
'copy running-config startup-config' followed by 'reload system'.
**Warning: User should remove unsupported configurations.
