profile tcam

Optimizes hardware resources, by specifying a ternary content-addressable memory (TCAM) profile.

Syntax

profile tcam { app-telemetry | border-routing | default | layer2-ratelimit | multicast-profile | vxlan-visibility }

Command Default

The default TCAM profile is enabled.

Parameters

app-telemetry: Optimizes resources for application telemetry. MCT is supported.
border-routing: Optimizes resources for border routing and BGP Flowspec features.
default: Optimizes resources with basic support for all applications. MCT is supported.
layer2-ratelimit: Optimizes resources for Layer 2 ACL egress rate-limiting and related applications.
multicast-profile: Optimizes resources for Layer 2 and Layer 3 IPv6 multicast.
vxlan-visibility: Optimizes resources for VXLAN transit visibility and GRE.

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".

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

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.

Examples

The following example optimizes TCAM resources for Layer 2 applications and VPLS support.

device# configure terminal
device(config)# hardware
device(config-hardware)# profile tcam layer2-ratelimit
