Administrator Guide
An input policy map with both Trust and Class-map configuration, the Class-map rules are ignored and only the 
Trust rule is programmed in the CAM. In such an instance, the Estimated CAM output column contains the size of 
the CAM space required for the Trust rule and not the Class-map rule.
The following describes the test cam-usage service-policy input policy-map stack-unit 
command shown in the following example.
Field Description
stack-unit Indicates the stack-unit slot number.
Portpipe Indicates the portpipe number.
CAM Partition The CAM space where the rules are added.
Available CAM Indicates the free CAM space, in the partition, for the classification rules.
NOTE: The CAM entries reserved for the default rules are not included in the 
Available CAM column; free entries, from the default rules space, cannot be 
used as a policy map for the classification rules.
Estimated CAM 
per Port
Indicates the number of free CAM entries required (for the classification rules) to apply 
the input policy map on a single interface.
NOTE: The CAM entries for the default rule are not included in this column; 
a CAM entry for the default rule is always dedicated to a port and is always 
available for that interface.
Status (Allowed 
ports)
Indicates if the input policy map configuration on an interface belonging to a stack-unit/
port-pipe is successful — Allowed (n) — or not successful — Exception. The allowed 
number (n) indicates the number of ports in that port-pipe on which the Policy Map can 
be applied successfully.
NOTE: In a Layer 2 Policy Map, IPv4/IPv6 rules are not allowed; therefore, the output contains 
only L2ACL CAM partition entries.
Example
DellEMC# test cam-usage service-policy input pmap_l2 stack-unit all
For a L2 Input Policy Map pmap_l2, the output must be as follows,
