We are repeating the same kind of tests performed on Jericho+ in the past but this time on the latest NPU: Jericho2 in Cisco NCS5500 (what we call NCS5700 for the fixed platforms).
It particularly aims at identifying how much space is used by a full internet view in systems without eTCAM and in systems with eTCAM (-SE).
More details are available on the xrdocs article:

In a second step, we demonstrate the 24x 400GE line card can forward traffic at line rate on all ports simultaneously.
