Two things to watch for in EARL7.x. 

ACL
  It can only do /128 lookup, if no L4 lookups are used in any ACL. This is
  the default way it works. Optionally you can configure it to do L4
  lookups also, in which case you can only do /88 lookups, not anything
  which is more specific (128b-16b src port-16b dst port-8b flags)

uRPF
  Not supported at all.

I'm sure there are others, likely multicast related, but can't pull other
significant things out of my head right now. I think those are the biggest
thing anyhow.
