Setting The Sdm Template - Cisco Catalyst 3750-X Software Configuration Manual

Chapter 8 Configuring SDM Templates

Setting the SDM Template

Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to configure an SDM template:
Command
Step 1
configure terminal
sdm prefer {access | default |
Step 2
dual-ipv4-and-ipv6 {default | routing |
vlan} | routing | vlan}
Step 3
end
Step 4
reload
After the system reboots, you can use the show sdm prefer privileged EXEC command to verify the new
template configuration. If you enter the show sdm prefer command before you enter the reload
privileged EXEC command, the show sdm prefer command shows the template currently in use and the
template that will become active after a reload.
This is an example output when you have changed the template and have not reloaded the switch:
Switch# show sdm prefer
The current template is "desktop routing" template.
The selected template optimizes the resources in
the switch to support this level of features for
8 routed interfaces and 1024 VLANs.
number of unicast mac addresses:
number of igmp groups + multicast routes:

number of qos aces:
number of security aces:
