Context show
Description This command displays buffer pool information on an adapter card. This information pertains 
to the memory allocation that is used for queuing purposes. The information is displayed 
according to the number of allocated buffers.
Since the 10-port 1GigE/1-port 10GigE X-Adapter card has separate ingress and egress 
buffer pools, there are two sets of pool information displayed for the card. Use the egress 
keyword to display only egress buffer pool information; use the ingress keyword to display 
only ingress buffer pool information; use the mda keyword by itself to display both egress 
buffer pool information and ingress buffer pool information.
All adapter cards allocate a fixed-size space for each buffer. The 7705 SAR supports two 
buffer sizes: 2304 and 512 bytes, depending on the type of adapter card. See Table 4 for a 
list of adapter cards and their associated buffers. 
A buffer size of 2304 bytes is large enough to accommodate the maximum frame size 
supported on the non-buffer-chaining adapter cards on the 7705 SAR. The adapter cards that 
support a buffer size of 2304 bytes always have a 1-to-1 correspondence of packets to 
buffers.
