If you manage a ASR9K router you must be sure that the mac address usage of the linecards do not exceed their capacity, otherwise based on the configuration traffic either going to be dropped or flooded. Trident based old line cards has a capacity of 128k Mac adress, and this limit could be a problem if you terminate too many l2 circuits.In such a scenerio, it is possible to write a TCL to create a syslog entry whenever the usage reaches a certain configurable amount. To do so, i wrote a TCL script, here are the details:
Command to Check Mac Usage
You can check any of the linecards resource like below:
RP/0/RSP0/CPU0:xxxx: show l2vpn forwarding resource hardware ingress detail location 0/0/CPU0 | include TOTAL MAC
Mon Nov 33 20:49:01.870 xxx
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4325/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4325/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4325/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4323/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4323/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4325/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4323/2097152
TOTAL MAC -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- -/- 4323/2097152
Prerequisites
For any script to work, router must have a hostname. Unless it is a lab router, you probably wouldn’t have such a problem, but keep in mind.
Determine a folder in router to copy the script, and make that directory.
#cd disk0:
#pwd
Mon Nov 21 15:37:24.393 UTC
disk0:
#mkdir tcl_scripts
Mon Nov 21 15:37:30.098 UTC
Create directory filename [tcl_scripts?
Created dir disk0:/ tcl_scripts
Point your user scripts folder to event manager.
(config)#event manager directory user policy disk0:/tcl_scripts
Configure AAA, so that event manager use locally configured users.
(config)#aaa authorization eventmanager default local
Under “admin” hierarchy create a user to execute scripts.
(config)#admin
(config)#username eem
(config-un)#group root-system
(config-un)#group cisco-support
The Script File:
I am a beginner if the case is writing a TCL script. In the script below i did not use loop/while cyles, as a result some part of the code repeats itself for every line card, moreover anyone experienced in regexps could shorten the code.
If you are not going to do any change, copy the script below into a text file and save it as a file. In my case i named it as “”.
Activating the Script
After copying the script to a folder, you must define the environment variables For this script, you must define the warning thresold and a cron entry for repetitive tasks.
(config)# event manager environment l2vpnmac_threshold_percent 85
(config)# event manager environment l2maccheck 0 * * * *
(config)# event manager policy asr9010_l2vpn_mac_check username eem type user
NOTE: make a Google search if you are not familiar with cron entries. Some examples:
0 * * * * -------> 0. Minute of every hour
15 * * * * -------> 15. Minute of every hour
*/10 * * * * -------> e very 10 minutes

- Script should work on ASR9010 and ASR9006.
- Script checks only the cards that are in “IOS-XR RUN” state. So there should not be a problem if linecard slots are empty or the linecards are off due to any reason.
- Do not use tcl operators supported by TCL versions newer than 8.3.4

Activating the Script
After copying the script to a folder, you must define the environment variables For this script, you must define the warning thresold and a cron entry for repetitive tasks.
(config)# event manager environment l2vpnmac_threshold_percent 85
(config)# event manager environment l2maccheck 0 * * * *
(config)# event manager policy asr9010_l2vpn_mac_check username eem type user
NOTE: make a Google search if you are not familiar with cron entries. Some examples:
0 * * * * -------> 0. Minute of every hour
15 * * * * -------> 15. Minute of every hour
*/10 * * * * -------> e very 10 minutes
