There is the 4 port group which I believe is the same as a port pair on a 6708.
Ie. No free switching.
Based on some comments by Tim Stevenson, the link between the four port group
and the fabric asic is 10G
rather than the 16G in the 6708. But he mentions some of the same chips
(metro, r2d2) so the architecture
can't be much different from the 6708.
Then there is the fabric group which is switched locally without going over the
fabric.

Short answer seems to be that the 6716 is basically the same despite claims to
the contrary
Hmm. I wonder if anyone from Cisco will comment ;o)
