Would appreciate it if someone could clarify the following scenario.
We have enabled l3hw on the switch chip of a CCR2216, this has significantly reduced the CPU usage when processing traffic on edge router setup with around 800k routes.

Question: What happens to the rules in /ip/firewall/RAW? Will all traffic still have to pass the RAW rules?

We don't use /ip/firewall/filter and connection tracking is set to "no". The question is only related to the /ip/firewall/RAW.

Many thx
