Does firewall filters / ACLs on EX (3400, 4300 etc.) can affect data plane performance / bandwidth or forwarding latency? Does it matter how complex they are and what actions they perform? (I am aware of TCAM size restrictions and I am NOT asking about it. I am asking specifically about performance hit / latency filters might introduce. )
I am about to implement quite complex ingress filters on routed VLAN interfaces (RVIs) with heavy use of FBF (routing-instance action) and I am wondering how it will affect performance.
