To configure the global system resource profile on a 7210 SAS or 7250 IXR

Purpose

Perform this procedure to allocate the system resources on 7210 SAS or 7250 IXR NEs.

The functional areas for which you can allocate resources vary, depending on the chassis type. See System resource profile and the NE documentation for more information about system resource allocation.

For the 7210 SAS-R, system resources for the G8032 Fast Flood, VPLS Up MEP Resource, and Router functions are configured on the device properties form using this procedure. Other system resources for the 7210 SAS-R are allocated using a policy; see To configure a system resource profile policy for the 7210 SAS-R/T/Mxp, 7210 SAS-S/Sx, or 7210 SAS-S/Sx VC .

To configure port-based scheduling on the 7210 SAS-Mxp or 7210 SAS-R, see To configure port-based scheduling on the 7210 SAS .

Note: System hardware resources are shared. Do not assign more than the available resources. Functions are disabled if you assign more than the amount of available resources.

Supporting releases of the 7250 IXR allow custom forwarding path resource allocation for resource-intensive functions such as multicast, ACL classification criteria, policers, etc.; see To configure forwarding path options or resource allocation on a 7250 IXR.

Steps
 
1 

On the equipment tree, right-click on a 7210 SAS or 7250 IXR NE and choose Properties. The Network Element (Edit) form opens.

2 

Click on the Globals tab, then click on the System Resource Profile tab.

3 

Configure the required parameters.

Configuration changes for some parameters require a reboot of the NE to take effect; see the NE documentation for more information.

If you are configuring ECMP profiles for a 7250 IXR NE, consider the following:

  • There are no default ECMP profiles for 7250 IXR.

  • For 7250 IXR with SR OS, ECMP profiles can be modified.

  • For 7250 IXR with SR OS, MPLS profiles are supported.

If you are configuring a 7210 SAS NE, consider the following:

  • To configure MAC authentication, set the Ingress MAC Authentication Resource and Egress MAC Authentication Resource parameters to 1 in the MAC Authentication panel.

  • To enable port-based access-ingress policies on a 7210 SAS-R6 or R12, set the Sap Scale Mode parameter to High.

  • The SAP Egress Aggregate Meter parameter is configurable when the Total ACL Resource parameter in the SAP Egress Internal ACL panel is set to a value of 1 or less.

  • If you set the SAP Egress Aggregate Meter parameter and then configure egress meters on SAPs, you cannot reset the parameter to a lower value unless you remove all egress meter configurations for all SAPs on the NE.

  • In the SAP Ingress Internal ACL panel, the sum of the values for the IPv4 Resource, IPv4/128-bit IPv6 Resource, and 64-bit IPv6 Resource parameters must not be greater than the value specified for the Total ACL Resource parameter.

  • In the SAP Egress Internal ACL panel, the sum of the values for the MAC Resource, IPv4 Resource, 128-bit IPv6 Resource, and 64-bit IPv6 Resource parameters must not be greater than the value specified for the Total ACL Resource parameter.

  • In the SAP Ingress QoS Resources panel, the sum of the values for the MAC Resource, IPv4 Resource, and IPv4/v6 Resource parameters must not be greater than the value specified for the Total QoS Resource parameter.

  • Each 128-bit address consumes two entries of the available entry resources.

  • The value for the Up MEP Resource parameter must not be greater than the value for the Total CFM Resource parameter.

  • For the Max IP Subnets parameter, IPv4 subnets use one entry each and IPv6 subnets use two entries each.

  • You cannot set the Mbs Pool Type parameter to Node when ports on the NE are decommissioned.
