Cisco CMTS Configuration Commands
packetcable gate maxcount
To change the maximum number of PacketCable gate IDs in the gate database on the Cisco CMTS, use
the packetcable gate maxcount command in global configuration mode. To reset the counter to its
default value, use the no form of this command.
Syntax Description

Defaults
2097152 gate IDs

12.2(15)BC1
Usage Guidelines
This command configures the number of gate IDs that the Cisco CMTS can store in its gate database.
Because each PacketCable gate ID typically refers to both an upstream gate and a downstream gate,
multiple this number by 2 to get the maximum number of gates that can be created on the CMTS.
Each cable interface line card supports a maximum of 512*512 (262,144) PacketCable gates, so ensure
Note
that you set the maximum number of gates to accommodate all installed cable interface line cards.
Examples
The following example shows the maximum number of gate IDs being set to 524288, which is sufficient
for two cable interface line cards:
Router# configure terminal
Router(config)# packetcable gate maxcount 524288
Router(config)#
OL-1581-08
packetcable gate maxcount n
no packetcable gate maxcount
Maximum number of gate IDs to be allocated in the gate database on the
CMTS. The valid range is 512 through 2097152, with a default value of
2097152 (8 * 512 * 512), which is sufficient to support 8 cable interface line
cards.
Modification
This command was introduced for the Cisco uBR7200 series universal
broadband router.
The maximum number of possible gates and the default number of gates
were doubled from 1,048,576 to 2,097,152 to accommodate a maximum of
eight cable interface line cards (where each cable interface line card can use
a maximum of 512*512, or 262,144, gates).
Support was added for the Cisco uBR10012 router.
