Release Information

Statement introduced in JUNOS Release 9.0.

object-cache-size option introduced in JUNOS Release 9.1.

forwarding-db-size, syslog, facility, and severity options introduced in JUNOS Release 9.2.

policy-db-size and wired-process-mem-size options introduced in JUNOS Release 9.3.

Description

Configure an SDK application on a PIC.

Options

control-cores control-number—Number of cores you want to specify as control cores, which are cores dedicated to run control functionality (application control). At least one core must be a control core.

Range: 1 through 8

data-cores data-number—Number of cores you want to specify as data cores, which are cores dedicated to processing data for the application (application data).

data-flow-affinity—Enable flow affinity distribution for packets over data CPUs on the PIC. Once enabled, the default behavior distributing data packets changes from a round-robin distribution to a flow affinity distribution based on a hash distribution. Adding or deleting this statement will cause the PIC to reboot.

Range: 0 through 7 (recommended minimum is 5).

forwarding-db-size size—Size of the forwarding database (FDB), in megabytes (MB).

Range: 0 through 1280

object-cache-size size—Size of the object cache, in MB. Only values in increments of 128 MB are allowed.

Range: For Multiservices 100 PIC, 128 through 512. If the PIC is configured with a wired-process-mem-size of 512, the maximum object-cache-size is 128 MB.

Range: For Multiservices 400 PIC, 128 through 1280. If the PIC is configured with a wired-process-mem-size of 512, the maximum object-cache-size is 512 MB.

package package-name—Name of the SDK application package to be installed on the PIC. Up to eight packages can be installed on a PIC.

policy-db-size size—Size of the policy database, in MB.

Range: Range: 0 through 1280

wired-process-mem-size size—Size of the wired process memory, in MB.

Range: For Multiservices 100 PIC and Multiservices 400 PIC, 0 through 512

The remaining statements are explained separately in this collection of topics.
