What is xylanHrexCacheFree?

This read-only Counter reports the number of HRE-X cache entries currently not in use, out of the total configured. An admin monitors this for cache exhaustion, since a depleted forwarding cache can force more traffic through slower software-based lookups. For example, a free-entry count consistently near zero during peak traffic suggests the HRE-X cache is undersized for the current flow volume.
