req: can we get a roadmap or even just a future features list for what hardware accelerated options we might see in 7.3 or 7.4?
For example, hw vxlan? hw MPLS labeling an popping? ipv6?
Some of these items we might be able to implement today knowing that hw support is coming down the line.
how many times you are gonna ask the same thing ??
As many times as it takes.
@syadnom
The Marvell hw accellerated is available when Tony Stark make it available.
I think this is a valid question.
However, Mikrotik don’t traditionally provide roadmaps.
I imagine the features delivered will vary by the chipset type.
My personal wish list for Hardware Offloads in order from most critical to least critical is:
- IPv6
- VRF
- MPLS POP
- VPLS
- VXLAN
L3HW IPv6 is in development. VRF and MPLS HW offloading most likely will come next. Regarding VXLAN and tunneling in general, I’m not sure if all the switch chips in the CRS3xx lineup support those features. Further investigation is needed.
Awesome. Thanks for you response. IPv6 is at least for me the #1 thing. Full MPLS (not just LSR) is likely a close second or first for others.
