sdm prefer

sdm prefer
Use the sdm prefer global configuration command to configure the template used in the Switch
Database Management (SDM) resource allocation. You can use a template to allocate system resources
to best support the features being used in your application. Use a template to provide maximum system
utilization for routing or for VLAN configuration
support IPv6 forwarding. Use the no form of this command to return to the default template.

Usage Guidelines
You must reload the switch for the configuration to take effect.
Use the sdm prefer vlan global configuration command only on switches intended for Layer 2 switching
with no routing. When you use the VLAN template, no system resources are reserved for routing entries,
and any routing is done through software. This overloads the CPU and severely degrades routing
performance.

functionality.
routing—Provide maximum system usage for IPv4 and IPv6 routing,
•
including IPv4 policy-based routing.
vlan—Provide maximum system usage for IPv4 and IPv6 VLANs.
•
Provide maximum system utilization for unicast routing. You would typically
use this template for a router or aggregator in the middle of a network.
Note
Provide maximum system utilization for VLANs. This template maximizes
system resources for use as a Layer 2 switch with no routing.
Modification
This command was introduced.
The routing-pbr keywords for configuring the policy-based routing
template were removed. This template is no longer required for policy-based
