The platform in question is Trident+ based and the official spec sheet =
from Edge Core is at: =
http://www.edge-core.com/ProdDtl.asp?sno=3D436&AS5610-52X Edge Core =
has other platforms that have the Trident2 ASIC in them.
Regardless it should be "pps" not "mbps". Forwarding (at least with =
Cumulus Linux*) is done on the ASIC, so is line rate for L2/L3. Will =
reach out to get the page updated.
