I have created two VLAN configurations with hw-offload implementation.
And put on my website.
Everything works fine and wants to put this configuration online
Unfortunately, I do not know the English language.
But the CLI and screenshots speak for themselves
I hope this is usefull

Did you ever checked with Mikrotik tool “Bandwidth Test” how much data you can push between your hEX and CSR?
If you can do this it would be nice if you can check with the tool “Profile” if your cpu is runnning on almost 100%.
I am looking for some reference points because my configuration can only push up to 500Mbits between two CRS switches with this new hardware bridge and VLANs.

Bridging is hw assisted, but not all hw is equal, and their capabilities in hw will defer:

Looks like the vlan filtering is only functioning in HW on CRS3xxx series…
So the while the bridge has initially been started with hw support, once vlan filter is added on his config it’s no longer in hardware…
Explain me please one thing: Coud the configuration with mainteined HW offload make intervlan traffic wirespeed?
I have change my illustration with the table.
Unfortunately, there was no one who told me that I give wrong information.
Sorry for this mistake i hope that in the future more routerboards are compatibel with VLAN filter.
if bridging is in hw, then it’s a “plain switch” and will do it at wirespeed.
But intervlan traffic, that is actually routing and that’s were FathPath comes into play.
