L009 no inter-VLAN hardware offload

Hi,

L009 no inter-VLAN hardware offload.

I’m doing lab tests with a L009 for vlan-filtering and it only gets the wire speed if both ports are on the same vlan.

If they are on different vlans, it tops out at ~300Mb (I know the product’s test pages), I want to know why it doesn’t do “switching” HW.

/interface bridge
add admin-mac=<some> auto-mac=no frame-types=admit-only-vlan-tagged name=BDI100 port-cost-mode=short protocol-mode=none pvid=99 vlan-filtering=yes
/interface bridge port
add bridge=BDI100 comment=PC02 frame-types=admit-only-untagged-and-priority-tagged interface=ether2 pvid=2
add bridge=BDI100 comment=Server_Iperf3 interface=ether5 pvid=3

/interface bridge vlan
add bridge=BDI100 tagged=BDI100 untagged=ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,ether6,ether7,ether8 vlan-ids=2
add bridge=BDI100 tagged=BDI100,ether7,ether2,ether3,ether4,ether5,ether6 vlan-ids=3

/interface vlan
add interface=BDI100 name=vlan2 vlan-id=2
add interface=BDI100 name=vlan3 vlan-id=3

hardware acceleration enabled:

/interface/bridge/port/print

Hi,

L009 does not support L3HW. The “H” flag in /interface/bridge/port/ indicates L2HW.

Hi,

That’s what I thought, thanks for confirming.
