Displaying CAM-ACL-Egress Settings
Use the show cam-acl-egress command on the S5000 to display the current CAM ACL settings for each
egress region. The default egress CAM ACL allocation settings on an S5000 (stack unit 0) are:
Dell#show cam-acl-egress
-- Chassis Egress Cam ACL --
Current Settings(in block sizes)
L2Acl : 1
Ipv4Acl : 1
Ipv6Acl : 2
-- Stack unit 0 --
Current Settings(in block sizes)
L2Acl : 1
Ipv4Acl : 1
Ipv6Acl : 2

CAM Optimization
CAM optimization is supported on the S5000 platform. Use the cam-optimization command to optimize
CAM utilization for QoS entries by minimizing the required policy-map CAM space.
If a Policy Map containing classification rules (ACL and/or DSCP/IP-precedence rules) is applied to more
than one physical interface on the same port-pipe, only a single copy of the policy is written (only 1 FP
entry will be used).
To disable CAM optimization, enter the
no cam-optimization command. S5000 CAM allocation then
behaves as described in CAM Allocation.
