5474 hits, 1998 fallbacks
32 max cache size, 29 in cache

Almost everything looks exactly the same, doesn't it? The only real difference
is at the end of the output. The Cisco 2514 displays the interface buffer pools;
the Cisco 7507 did not have that information. The Ethernet buffer pool size is
consistent with the values in Table 4.2. It is the same size used by the SP/SSP on
the Cisco 7000 series.
Troubleshooting Commands
N
ow we get into the heart of things. You might wonder, "Why did I
need to know all the previous information to pass the test?" The answer is
that you need to know how packets move across the router to be able to deci-
pher the information provided by the troubleshooting commands that are
explained in this section.
