System Resource Allocation Profile (7100-Series)

The system resource allocation profile determines the traffic classifications and ACL types supported for the system and the number of rules supported for each traffic classification and ACL type. There are currently two supported profiles: default and router1.

Policy traffic classifications are broken into four sets including MAC rules, IPv6 rules, IPv4 rules, and L2 rules configured using the set policy rule command. Traffic classifications are applied to ACLs as described in S- and K-Series L3 and L2 Access Control List Configuration.

The S- K- and 7100-Series supports up to 512 admin policy rules based upon the macsource and port rule classifications and 768 non-admin policy rules. Within the non-admin policy rule support, limits are placed on the number of rules within a policy traffic classification set. Non-admin policy rules belonging to each set are defined in Policy Traffic Classification Sets.

See the release notes that come with your firmware for the supported number of traffic classification and ACL rules supported for each system resource allocation profile.
