[c-nsp] WS-X6716-10G local switching and etherchanneling

[Sam Stickland]

Hi,

I've read: 
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/switches/ps5718/ps708/prod_white_paper0900aecd80673385.html

If I'm understanding this correctly, communication between each bank of 
8 ports on a 6716-10G will be line-rate, but communication between the 
first and second groups of 8 ports will need to traverse the switch fabric?

On a similar note, if I create an etherchannel between two 6716-10G's 
will a module favour forwarding out of it's locally attached channel member?

Regards,

Sam
