Description: The amount of CAM currently available for this layer 3 traffic entry. For ipv4 traffic, each unit is 4 bytes. For ipv4vpn, each unit is 8 bytes. For ipv6, each unit is 16 bytes.
What is snCamUsageL3Free?
This value reports how many CAM entries currently remain free for a specific layer 3 traffic type on a given linecard's network processor. Administrators watch this value to catch CAM exhaustion before it causes route or ACL installation failures, especially on linecards carrying large IPv4 or IPv6 routing tables. A snCamUsageL3Free value approaching zero on an ipv6 entry would warn that the device is nearly out of room for new IPv6 forwarding entries.
