Displaying egress–queue Statistics
To display the number of transmitted and dropped packets and their rate on the egress queues of an interface, use the following
command:
● Display the number of packets and number of bytes on the egress-queue profile.
EXEC Privilege mode

Pre-Calculating Available QoS CAM Space
Before Dell EMC Networking OS version 7.3.1, there was no way to measure the number of CAM entries a policy-map would
consume (the number of CAM entries that a rule uses is not predictable; from 1 to 16 entries might be used per rule depending
upon its complexity). Therefore, it was possible to apply to an interface a policy-map that requires more entries than are
available. In this case, the system writes as many entries as possible, and then generates an CAM-full error message (shown in
the following example). The partial policy-map configuration might cause unintentional system behavior.
%EX2YD:12 %DIFFSERV-2-DSA_QOS_CAM_INSTALL_FAILED: Not enough space in L3
Cam(PolicyQos) for class 2 (TeGi 12/20) entries on portpipe 1
The test cam-usage command allows you to verify that there are enough available CAM entries before applying a policy-map
to an interface so that you avoid exceeding the QoS CAM space and partial configurations. This command measures the size of
the specified policy-map and compares it to the available CAM space in a partition for a specified port-pipe.
Test the policy-map size against the CAM space for a specific port-pipe or all port-pipes using these commands:
● test cam-usage service-policy input policy-map {stack-unit } number port-set number
● test cam-usage service-policy input policy-map {stack-unit } all
The output of this command, shown in the following example, displays:
● The estimated number of CAM entries the policy-map will consume.
● Whether or not the policy-map can be applied.
● The number of interfaces in a port-pipe to which the policy-map can be applied.
Specifically:
● Available CAM — the available number of CAM entries in the specified CAM partition for the specified line card or stack-
unit port-pipe.
● Estimated CAM — the estimated number of CAM entries that the policy will consume when it is applied to an interface.
● Status — indicates whether the specified policy-map can be completely applied to an interface in the port-pipe.
○ Allowed — indicates that the policy-map can be applied because the estimated number of CAM entries is less or equal
to the available number of CAM entries. The number of interfaces in the port-pipe to which the policy-map can be
applied is given in parentheses.
○ Exception — indicates that the number of CAM entries required to write the policy-map to the CAM is greater than the
number of available CAM entries, and therefore the policy-map cannot be applied to an interface in the specified port-
pipe.
