https://community.extremenetworks.com/t5/extremeswitching-exos-switch/rib-and-fib/m-p/46894#M11969 Hello, colleagues!<BR /> <BR /> Whether I understand the theory?<BR /> <BR /> For example X460 switch.<BR /> FIB - forwarding infromation base = Data Plane = TCAM = ASIC = hardware = 12K IPv4 routes<BR /> RIB - routing information base = Control Plane = CPU = software = 25K IPv4 routes<BR /> <BR /> Am I right or not?<BR /> <BR /> Thank you!
