bahahaah! oh, sorry...
also, how does all-small-packets performance and reasonable ACL
behaviour work? (reasonable for dos things let's keep under 1k acl
lines) What about IDB-type numbers? is this a 10-interfaces at
line-rate or 10k interfaces at line-rate (line-rate on say ... 8 10G
interfaces)?
Scaling a routing platform in software for high bandwidth services is
difficult... or seems to be at least.
