Symptom

For the N7k platforms there is no verified scalibility number available to confirm. It needs to be more clear to customers what the scalability limits on WCCP programming are supported. To accomplish this, we should document a Verified Scalability Guide for WCCP which details a number of potential profiles that we can reliably supported.

Conditions

In certain scenario where customer migrate from Cat6k to N7k, they end up in consume all the resource due to large number of policies. One sceanio Number of interfaces 60 WCCP service group 8 Each wccp service group have 8 or more ports attached. 5 ACLs each over 200 lines MASK value 7F In above scenario box was not even able to modify the polices in 5 Minutes and SPM timeout. Only lower mask to 0xF didn't help.

Workaround

Lower the number of interfaces wccp applied. Lower the mask value Reduce the number of port attached to each service group Reduce the number of lines in ACL.
