4451-X throughput, license performance doubt

Hi ciscomates!

I have a doubt about licence performance into 4451-X, What is the meaning of 1 Gbps performance? I think that the maximun throughput that I can achive in total, adding each interface throughput.

In example, If I have a router for routing between two networks I can only reach 500 Mbps per interface. Or, If I need to route three networks I only can reach 1 Gbps in total, ( 250 Mbps in two interfaces plus 500 in the third one)

Am I correct?

Thank you in advance.

I believe the license is for aggregate bandwidth, through the backplane.

Thanks for reply Joseph.

More ideas or link reference to Joseph´s view?

Hello David,

I've got the same question, what is the performace license ?

Is cisco doing traffic shaping if we don't buy this license ? or is it a limit on the CPU cores (maybe some disabled till we activate the license) ?
