Hardware Table Capacity Monitoring is a new feature to keep track of the capacity and utilization of various hardware forwarding resources and generate alerts/syslogs when the utilization exceeds a threshold value. Users can keep track of the current usage statistics using a single show command, and also configure thresholds on a per-resource basis, to be notified about any high-utilization upfront, before reaching any resource limits. The Main use-case would be for troubleshooting in overflow situations and avoid overflows altogether by taking corrective actions on high utilization.
