Knowing the buffer size in C3750 Catalyst switch

Hi All,

This is in reference to the query that I earlier have written to this group. news: snipped-for-privacy@q75g2000hsh.googlegroups.com...

I tried the " show buffers " command in a Cisco Catalyst C3750 switch. The following is a part of the output. "" Interface buffer pools: Supervisor MIC Fallback pool buffers, 2040 bytes (total 904, permanent 904): 897 in free list (0 min, 904 max allowed) 44790529 hits, 0 misses supervisor_cpuq_0_pool buffers, 2040 bytes (total 1200, permanent

1200): 700 in free list (0 min, 1200 max allowed) 104718271 hits, 0 misses supervisor_cpuq_2_pool buffers, 2040 bytes (total 64, permanent 64): 0 in free list (0 min, 64 max allowed) 64 hits, 0 misses, 0 trims, 0 created 0 failures (0 no memory) supervisor_cpuq_1_pool buffers, 2040 bytes (total 128, permanent 128): 1 in free list (0 min, 128 max allowed) 25512718 hits, 199587 fallbacks supervisor_cpuq_4_pool buffers, 2040 bytes (total 128, permanent 128): 1 in free list (0 min, 128 max allowed) 3032553 hits, 35456 fallbacks supervisor_cpuq_15_pool buffers, 2040 bytes (total 4, permanent 4): 0 in free list (0 min, 4 max allowed) 801508724 hits, 801508720 misses ""

My goal was to know the buffer size available in the interface of the switch . As per the above output , it seems the buffer size is 2040 bytes. But I am just wondering , if the size is only 2040 bytes , then it can hold only one or two packets .

So , please help in getting the correct buffer size of the interface. Also , is the buffer size is fixed , or it changes according to the rate of traffic. If it changes according to the rate of traffic , then probably there will be some maximum value. How can I know the maximum value.

So Kindly , anybody who had idea regarding this subject , please help me to interpret the correct information.

With Thanks and Regards
