experiences?
They can not handle a full routing table. The load balancing doesn't =
work.
They can not properly reassemble fragmented packets, and therefore drop =
all but the first "piece". They can not reliably handle traffic loads =
over maybe 200 Mbps, we needed 4-6 Gbps capacity. They can not hold a =
gre tunnel connection.
