Custom profiles for hardware resources (ACX7024, ACX7024X, ACX7100-32C, ACX7100-48L, ACX7332, ACX7348, and ACX7509)—Although using the
hw-db-profileconfiguration you can statically reserve hardware resources, you cannot use this configuration for all hardware resources because there are resources that need to be managed independently. You can use the custom profile infrastructure instead to customize hardware resource allocation as per application requirements. Using the custom profile infrastructure enables you to create application-specific dynamic hardware resource allocations.[See Custom Profiles for Hardware Resources, counter-profiles, hw-profiles, and hw-profile.]

Support to assign counter resources for the policer-ingress application (ACX7332)—Support has been extended to the policer-ingress application to be assigned counter engines to provide the following numbers of counter resources - 4,000, 8,000, and 16,000. This will enable higher scale for firewall filters and policers. For example, two counter engines of 16,000 counters for a total of 32,000 counters can be assigned to the policer-ingress application using the following configuration statement:
set system packet-forwarding-options custom-profiles counter-profiles policer_32k app policer-ingress counter-16k 2
