How to isolate all ports?

Hardware MikroTik hardware general

Hello,

In block diagrams all RB’s have ports in switch(s).
for example: http://i.mt.lv/routerboard/files/RB3011UiAS-160307123613.png
This is default hardware configuration, or this diagrams actual only if i set “Master Port” on interface?
And if i no set “Master Port”, all ports completely isolated in L1/L2-layer?

for default all single port are isolated from eachother with all levels

>>for default all single port are isolated from eachother with all levels

If this is true, then why Mikrotik do not use ONE switch for all ports?

And why Mikrotik do not use switch for some CCR models?

Diagram shows switch chip and that those ports CAN be configured in switch groups. How you configure router is up to you.

All switch chip ports share single line to CPU, which leads to lower total throughput in L3 routing, that is the main reason why high end models do not have switch chips. If you want switch buy CRS.

>>All switch chip ports share single line to CPU

No, in this diagram we see TWO line to CPU (one line to each core) for each switch chip:

but, in this diagram we really see ONE line to CPU for switch chip:

why in CCR you did not use 4 lines for switch chip?

Qualcom and tile are two completely different CPUs.
