Test highlights

• Achieves 100% of line-rate zero-loss throughput when tested across 672 Gigabit Ethernet ports, equating to over 1.34 Terabits per second throughput, processing traffic at 1 billion 64-byte packets per second (pps).
• Supports 100% of line-rate zero-loss throughput when tested across 56 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, equating to over 1 Terabits per second throughput.
• Offers 100% of line-rate zero-loss throughput while handling over 1 million Access Control Lists (ACLs) tested across 56 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports.
• Sustains 100% of line-rate zero-loss throughput when forwarding IPv6 packets at Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet data rates.
