Provide a simple way to use switch chip to do wire-speed IP routing. Although the switch chips can only support limited routing rules, it can serve smaller setups well.

I am wondering if MikroTik team has considered to make use of switch chip on CRS to do wire speed L3 switching. It can make the CRS a real L3 switch as others understand, not just a L2 switch plus limited speed L3 switching.

I found that the switch chip in CRS and Routerboard supports packet forwarding based on IP matching rule[1][2]. It seems that I can use ACL rule to match IP address and route packets. It can potentially achieve wire-speed routing by doing routing in the switch chip. Have anyone successfully configur...
