Hi,

Looks like the CEF table is getting filled up. You can change the CEF table size for a specific routing protocol. For example: The following will change the IPv6 routing table to 128k entries and the mpls table to 64k entries. The multicast table will be 8k.

mls cef maximum-routes ipv6 128
mls cef maximum-routes mpls 64
mls cef maximum-routes ip-multicast 8

You need the reload the whole box to commit this change.

This will give you the following table size:

#show mls cef maximum-routes
FIB TCAM maximum routes :
=======================
Current :-
-------
 IPv4                - 688k (default)
 MPLS                - 64k
 IPv6                - 128k
 IP Multicast        - 8k

regards,
Rinse Kloek

Hi,

I am receiving following logs on my Cisco 6503. SUP is 720-3BXL.

%MLSCEF-SP-4-FIB_EXCEPTION_THRESHOLD: Hardware CEF entry usage is at 95%
capacity for IPv4 unicast protocol.


#show ip cef summary
IPv4 CEF is enabled for distributed and running
VRF base:
  498291 prefixes (498254/37 fwd/non-fwd)
  Default network 0.0.0.0/0
  Table id 0
  Database epoch:        4 (498291 entries at this epoch)




#show mls cef maximum-routes
FIB TCAM maximum routes :
=======================
Current :-
-------
  IPv4 + MPLS         - 512k (default)
  IPv6 + IP Multicast - 256k (default)


Plus I have got 4 transit links on this switch, means complete BGP feed
from four providers.

Any suggestions to fix this problem?
