hw-module profile npu native-mode-enable

To enable the native mode on Cisco NCS 5500 series modular routers having Cisco NCS 5700 line cards, use the hw-module profile npu native-mode-enable command in the configuration mode.

hw-module profile npu native-mode-enable

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

The command is not enabled by default.

Command Modes

Global Configuration mode

Command History

Release Modification
Release 7.0.2

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

To activate the native mode, you must manually reload the line cards using the hw-module location all reload command in the System Admin mode.

Examples

This example shows how to enable native mode in a NCS 5700 line card:

Router# config
Router(config)# hw-module profile npu native-mode-enable
Router(config)# commit

hw-module profile routing role core

To configure the routing role of a node as a core router, use the hw-module profile routing role core command in XR Config mode.

hw-module profile routing role core

Syntax Description

This command has no keywords or arguments.

Command Default

None

Command Modes

XR Config mode

Command History

Release Modification
Release 7.3.2

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

After configuring this command, you must reload the router for the configuration to take effect.

Examples

This example shows how to configure the routing role of a node as a core router.

Router# config
Router(config)# hw-module profile routing role core
Router(config)# commit

hw-module profile tcam fib v6mcast percent

On NL-based external TCAM, by default, multicast IPv6 routes are programmed in KAPS instead of external TCAM. The IPv6 multicast route scale is limited in KAPS. To increase the route scale, configure the routes in external TCAM. To increase the IPv6 multicast route scale in external TCAM, use the hw-module profile tcam fib v6mcast percent command in the global configuration mode.

hw-module profile tcam fib v6mcast percent value

Syntax Description

value

A number from 0 to 100 for the external TCAM scale allocation.

Command Default

No default behavior or values.

Command Modes

Global Configuration mode

Command History

Release Modification
Release 6.6.1

This command was introduced.

Usage Guidelines

  • After configurating this command, you must manually reload the line cards using the hw-module location all reload command in the System Admin mode.

  • You must enable the hw-module profile tcam fib ipv6 unicast percent <> command before configuring the hw-module profile tcam fib v6mcast percent <> command.
