Setting The Hardware Resource Mode For Tables - HPE FlexFabric 5940 Series Configuration Manual

Setting the hardware resource mode for tables

IMPORTANT:
For this feature to take effect, you must save the running configuration and reboot the device. Before
rebooting the device, make sure you fully understand the impact on your network,
The switch supports multiple hardware resource modes for the MAC address table, ARP/ND table,
and routing tables. The capacities of the MAC address table, ARP/ND table, and routing tables vary
by hardware resource mode. The capacities of the routing tables also vary by whether the
hardware-resource routing-mode ipv6-128 command is configured. For more information about
the hardware-resource routing-mode ipv6-128 command, see Layer 3—IP Routing Command
Reference.
The term "IPv6-64" in
bits. The term "IPv6-128" refers to a prefix length that is greater than 64 bits.
The ARP table and ND table share the same storage space. The IPv4 routing table and IPv6 routing
table share the same storage space.
