FastForward FastPath mode

In order for the CCR device to operate as a NIC, a new Passthrough mode has been implemented. It is basically a FastForward FastPath mode that can also pass hardware link statuses.

Components that put you in control

With 4 GB of RAM, 128 MB of NAND, and a powerful quad-core 64-bit ARMv8 processor, this device can handle a multitude of tasks: firewalls, user management and access control for home media and file servers, and even data center traffic control - without the need for a standalone router.

Restrictions to be aware of

However, this form factor has some limitations to keep in mind. The CCR card takes some time to boot up compared to ASIC-based configurations. If the host system is booted before the CCR card, it will not be visible among the available devices. You should add a delay in the BIOS to initialize PCIe devices after power-up. Otherwise, PCIe devices will need to be reinitialized from the host system.
