I’m new to Mikrotik routers and have a first question to the community.
When I want maximum performance is it adviseble to use Fasttrack even if hw-offloading is active??
Can someone explain the difference between both features apart from the fact that Fasttrack is Software and HW-Offloading is on the hardware level.
HW offloading is a feature that helps with forwarding L2 frames between ethernet ports (short: ethernet switching).
Fasttrack is a feature which helps with faster performance of firewall (which is L3 function, working on IPv4 level).
So both features don’t have any intersection at all.
Thank you Mkx for the clear anwser.
