You can re-configure the amount of space, in percentage, allocated to each sub-partition
IPv4Flow partition, you can configure the Layer 2 ACL partition from EXEC Privilege mode or
CONFIGURATION mode.
The amount of space that you can distribute to the sub-partitions is equal to the amount of CAM space that
the selected CAM profile allocates to the Layer 2 ACL partition. FTOS requires that you specify the
amount of CAM space for all sub-partitions and that the sum of all sub-partitions is 100%. FTOS displays
the following message if the total allocated space is not correct:
% Error: Sum of all regions does not total to 100%.

Boot Behavior

The profile and microcode loaded on the primary RPM determines the profile and microcode that is
required on all other chassis components and is called the "chassis profile." A profile mismatch condition
exists if either the CAM profile or the microcode does not match.
card boot behavior when the line card profile does not match the chassis profile.
• A microcode mismatch constitutes a profile mismatch.
• When the line card profile and chassis profile are of the same type (single-CAM or dual-CAM), but
their CAM profiles do not match, the line card must load a new profile and therefore takes longer to
come online.
• If you insert a single-CAM line card into a chassis with a dual-CAM profile, the system displays

• If you insert a dual-CAM line card into a chassis with a single-CAM profile, the line card boots with a
matching profile, but operates with a lower capability.
