When a firewall filter configuration exceeds the amount of available TCAM space, the
switch returns the following
No space available in tcam.
Rules for filter filter-name will not be installed.
The switch returns this message during the commit operation if the firewall filter that
has been applied to a port, VLAN, or Layer 3 interface exceeds the amount of available
TCAM space. However, the commit operation for the firewall filter configuration is
completed in the CLI module.
When a firewall filter configuration exceeds the amount of available TCAM table space,
you must configure a new firewall filter with fewer filter terms so that the space
