I feel like this shouldn't be listed on a data sheet for just the
whitebox hardware. The software running on it would be the gating
factor.
There would be two things ... BGP convergence, and then the time
required to get routes from the RIB into the hardware forwarding tables.
These are completely separate things. Both are gated on software for the
most part, and it would be hard to measure them unless you know a lot
more about the environment. Even then it would be a bit of a guess.
Contact me off list if you're interested in prior experience in this
area.
