Context show
Description This command displays megapool information. A megapool is a mechanism the IOM-3 flexpath traffic
manager uses to allow oversubscription of buffer pools. Every buffer pool is created in the context of a
megapool.
By default, all buffer pools are associated with a single megapool and the pools are not oversubscribed.
When WRED queue support is enabled on the IOM, three megapools are used.
•
•
•
The traffic manager buffers are allocated to the three megapools without oversubscription. The WRED
queue pools are allowed to oversubscribe their megapool, but the megapool protects the pools associated
with the other megapools from buffer starvation that could be caused by that oversubscription.
Parameters slot-number — Displays information for the specified card slot.
fp-number — The fp-number parameter is optional following the fp command. If omitted, the system
assumes forwarding plane number 1.
queue-group queue-group-name — Displays information for the specified port queue group name.
ingress — Displays ingress queue group information.
egress — Displays egress queue group information.
