Cam-Optimization - Dell MXL 10GbE Reference Manual

On the MXL 10/40GbE switch IO module, there can be only one odd number of
Blocks in the CLI configuration; the other Blocks must be in factors of two. For
example, a CLI configuration of 5+4+2+1+1 Blocks is not supported; a
configuration of 6+4+2+1 Blocks is supported.
Ranges for the CAM profiles are from 1 to 10, except for the ipv6acl profile which
is from 0 to 10. The ipv6acl allocation must be a factor of two (2, 4, 6, 8, 10).
