These are the two most important facts. Slow lovely routers are terrible for vlan routing and acl's. If I had a nickel for every time I saw a 28XX or 26XX peg at %100 cpu time and stop responding because some dipshit thought it'd be a good "router on a stick" for vlan routing over fa speeds. FFS, it's a 200mhz proc. When the hardware based packet router gets overloaded it goes to the software based one, which blows balls, btw. I've gotten some very confused emails starting with, "well it worked XX months ago, what's different now?" "Have you added more users?" "uh, yeah" moral of the story is, routing at fa speeds through a 2XXX series router with any sort of acl's/policy based routing is a NO!

jwh posted:Aren't 2600 and 2800 series software CEF only? What hardware are you talking about? oh balls, you're right. This was a cat 3XXX something, layer 3 switch, I had a 2XXX as a router on a stick with the same problem, ACL's with intervlan routing. The Cat was doing the same thing but it had policy based routing. NVM, then.
