no hardware profile parity-error {l2-table | l3-table} clear
Syntax Description
Command Default None
Command Modes Global configuration mode
Command History
Usage Guidelines The following guidelines apply:
• When the command is used for an l2_entry table, the cleared entry should be relearned due to the
traffic pattern.
• When the command is used for an l3_entry_only (host) table, the cleared entry is not be relearned.
The command is useful in the following customer configurations:
• L2_Entry table, with no static L2_entry table entries
If the L2_Entry table entry is cleared, the entry should be dynamically learned through the traffic
pattern. It should not be learned through IGMP or multicast.
• L3_Entry_only (host) table
Customers should not use the host table. The hardware profile unicast enable-host-ecmp command
should be enabled. In this case, the customer node does not have any valid entries in the
L3_Entry_only table, so clearing the L3_Entry_only entry table should not have any impact.
This command is effective when it is present in the running configuration and the system is booting up.
In addition, the command must be enabled and after the configuration is saved, the system should be
rebooted for the command to take effect.
Examples This example shows how to clear parity errors in a Layer 2 table:
switch# configure terminal
l2-table clear Specifies to clear parity error entries in a Layer 2 table.
l3-table clear Specifies to clear parity error entries in a Layer 3table.
