differentiate packets by protocol and port. These entries all hash to the same 
value because they have the same source and destination address, and you 
may observe a degradation of the switch performance. 
Example
To block SNMP access to the supervisor from the network, on IP interface 
10.10.0.240/255.255.255.0, use the following ACL entry:
ip access-list SNMP 10 deny udp any host 10.10.0.240 eq 161
If you were to use the following command, the switch would block all inter-
subnet SNMP traffic, but would also create a forwarding cache entry for 
every flow that had a different SA, DA, source port, destination port, or 
protocol. 
ip access-list SNMP 10 deny udp any any eq 161
Interrelation with 
Hash Mode Setting
Using DA-only hashing generally reduces the overall number of forwarding 
entries, but it can cause performance issues if used when an ACL is enabled. 
These performance issues are magnified when the ACL uses protocol and 
port identifiers.
An ACL that specifies a source address, protocol ID, or port ID requires 
closer analysis of packets than just the destination address. Every flow to 
the destination needs its own forwarding cache entry based on the ACL 
criteria, and all of the entries hash to the same value. In this scenario, the 
switch must sequentially search every entry in the forwarding cache that has 
the same DA (thus hash-location). 
When you set the hash mode to SA-DA, each different source-destination 
combination hashes to a different value. Thus the number of entries hashed 
to a single value significantly decreases. However, SA-DA can also cause 
performance issues in some situations. If many entries that do not match the 
ACL have similar hash values to those that do, DA-only hashing provides 
more efficient usage of the forwarding memory. 
Managing F-chip Memory
The reconfiguration of Hash Mode can cause a secondary effect: increased 
cache usage. By default, the IP Unicast Cache size is 15,000 entries per F-
chip. Although this can be used up simply due to a high number of flows 
(for example, a proxy server for the internet), the SA-DA Hash Mode 
setting always causes more flows to be identified than in the DA-only 
mode.
The F-chip memory can accommodate approximately 70,000 total entries 
for routed (L3) flows. This number comprises IP Unicast, IP Multicast, and 
IPX entries for that F-chip.
