Tx-ring-limit

[rmv72]

Hello,

how monitor hardware queue on ethernet interface (after applying tx-ring-limit command)?

Regards,

Mike

Hi Mike,

you can use "show controller " and you will see the rx/tx ring limit set on that interface. Bear in mind that on most of the platforms the ethernet interfaces tx/rx rings values are hardcoded and thought the command is accepted, it won't actually change anything.

hope this helps,

Hi Fabrizio,

the output of "sh contr f0/0" is not helpful...

Here output from 2811-

#sh contr f0/0           
Interface FastEthernet0/0
Hardware is MV96340

Where to find info about hardcoded tx/rx rings models?
