View CAM Usage
View the amount of CAM space available, used, and remaining in each ACL partition using the show cam-usage command from EXEC
Privilege mode.

CAM Optimization
When you enable the CAM optimization, if a Policy Map containing classification rules (ACL and/or DSCP/ ip-precedence rules) is applied
to more than one physical interface on the same port-pipe, only a single copy of the policy is written (only one FP entry is used). When
you disable this command, the system behaves as described in this chapter.
Troubleshoot CAM Profiling
The following section describes CAM profiling troubleshooting.
CAM Profile Mismatches
The CAM profile on all cards must match the system profile. In most cases, the system corrects mismatches by copying the correct profile
to the card, and rebooting the card. If three resets do not bring up the card, or if the system is running an Dell Networking OS version
prior to version 6.3.1.1, the system displays an error message. In this case, manually adjust the CAM configuration on the card to match the
system configuration.
To prevent mismatches, Dell Networking recommends the following:
• Use the eg-default CAM profile in a chassis that has only EG Series line cards. If this profile is used in a chassis with non-EG line cards,
the non-EG line cards enter a problem state.
• Before moving a card to a new chassis, change the CAM profile on a card to match the new system profile.
• After installing a secondary RPM into a chassis, copy the running-configuration to the startup-configuration.
• Change to the default profile if downgrading to a Dell Networking OS version earlier than 6.3.1.1.
• Use the CONFIGURATION mode commands so that the profile is change throughout the system.
• Use the EXEC Privilege mode commands to match the profile of a component to the profile of the target system.
