I am trying to understand or see if there would be differences between
using OpenBSD for routing in a setup where the routing is done between
two VLan's for example oppose to between to physical network cards.
Any impact on the pps capability between the two?
not really.
Because in both cases the full packet content, header and all need/would
be move between the network card vlan 2 to memory then back to the same
card vlan 3 for example, oppose to card 1 to memory, then card 2?
So, it might only make a difference then on big packets that would need
to cross over a PCI bridge then? Or not even then?
I am really trying to find ways to increase the pps limitations.
