L3-HW vs IPv6 Fasttrack

RouterOS General
1

Hello just a quick question:

CCR2116
Eth1: WAN
eth2: toward users. I have here a dhcp server and a /36, from wich I deliver /48 to the end customers.
Since I have full l3-hw routing v4/v6, does it make sense to enable on the /36 the fasttrack ?

I have found that the ipv6 fast-track speed up a lot ipv6 traffic in standard plain routers. But if I use l3-hw, I dont need the ipv6 fasttrack since the v6 are all wirespeed router, right?

L3HW fasttrack can only make a difference on devices running firewall. If you use your CCR as “plain” router, “simple” L3HW should be enough.
