How to count "number of unicast indirect routes"

[soichi.iizuka]

Hi

On Catalyst3750 with default SDM template, cisco says up to 2K unicast/indirect routes will be stored in TCAM and will be fast switched.

I have 2 questions aboud this.

If one destination has 4 next-hops, should I count this as 4 route?

For static route with interface option, is this direct route or indirect route?

Hello,

If one destination has 4 next-hops, should I count this as 4 route? one route

For static route with interface option, is this direct route or indirect route? Based on the fact that the router consideres the destination is directly connected I would say direct.

Thank you for the response.

Do you have any document explained that single destination with multiple next-hops uses only one route in TCAM memory?

I think it's natural that number of next-hops has some impact to TCAM utilization.
