摘要：
A network device is configured to route an ingress packet based on its L2 header. In some configurations the ingress packet is routed based only on the destination MAC (DMAC) address in the L2 header, which allows the network device to begin routing as soon as the DMAC is received. The DMAC can be used in a table look up operation to identify routing actions for a nexthop. An egress packet is produced from the ingress packet using the routing actions. The egress packet is then sent on an egress port specified in the routing actions.
