Hello, I've got a cisco 3560 (WS-C3560G-48TS-S) pulling in (80Mbs, 6500pps) on one switch port, and sending it out a trunk... cpu load is 5%.
Another cisco 3560, pulling in that same traffic on a trunk and sending it out a layer3 point-to-point gigE is running at 70 to 80% (cpu hog is "IP Input"). In fact, the cpu load is roughly the same as the Mbs load. 50Mbs = 50%. Now, I know it's a small switch in the cisco line. But wouldn't we expect it to do a fair bit better than this? It looks like it will crap out at 100Mbs of layer3 traffic. Thanks, -mark _______________________________________________ cisco-nsp mailing list [email protected] https://puck.nether.net/mailman/listinfo/cisco-nsp archive at http://puck.nether.net/pipermail/cisco-nsp/
