So, on a 12012 with:
1 Route Processor Card
1 Clock Scheduler Card
3 Switch Fabric Cards
What is the available aggregate useful packet bandwidth in the backplane
to a 3GE card?
Will a 3GE be able to run all three ports full (if the pps limit is not
reached) or not? If there is a backplane limit, is this leveraged in case
some packets can be forwarded between the ports on a single 3GE (ie the
card have higher "internal" capacity than the backplane can support) and
then it can run all three ports full?
