This command is used to configure the system resource profile.
g8032-fast-flood-enable
Note: This command is supported only on 7210 SAS-M devices.
Syntax g8032-fast-flood-enable
no g8032-fast-flood-enable
Context config>system>resource-profile
Description Platforms Supported: 7210 SAS-M.
This command is used to enable the G.8032 fast-flood feature.When this command is executed it is stored in
the configuration file after admin save is executed.
A system reboot is required for this command to take
effect.
It is recommended to enable this command to improve service failover time due to failures in the ring path.
When fast flood is enabled, on a failure detection in one of the paths of the eth-ring, along with MAC flush
the system starts to flood the traffic onto the available path.
If this command is present in the configuration file, on reboot the system allocates resources for G.8032, by
reducing the amount of resources available for use with ACLs. When this command is used, G.8032 fast-
flood needs an entire chunk with “512” entries,therefore the amount of resources available for use with
ACLs is reduced by “512”. User needs to free up resources used by ACLs and make them available for use
by G.8032, before enabling this command.The user should ensure that the resource usage of ACLs has been
appropriately modified before reboot, to make way for use of this feature.User can free up resources either
disabling the use of ACLs with a SAP or deleting a SAP, so that an entire chunk of 512 entries is available.
Before enabling the g8032-fast-flood-enable command the user must check if sufficient resources are
available.The tools>dump>system-resources command is available to check if sufficient resources are
available.The field 'Ingress Shared CAM Entries' shown in the output below of tools>dump>system-
resources command, must be more than or equal to 512 (free column in the output shown below).
| Total | Allocated | Free
-------------------------------+-----------+-----------+------------
Ingress Shared CAM Entries | 0 | 0 | 512
If the configuration file contains a no form of this command, then the system does not allocate any resources
for use by G.8032.The entire resource pool is available for use by ACLs. The no form of the command takes
affect only on reboot.
Default no g8032-fast-flood-enable
