- | [[https://wiki.freshtomato.org/ | + | For example, CTF could allow you to use your FreshTomato device in a Gigabit WAN environment. With CTF disabled (Default), WAN-to-LAN performance depends on the hardware model in use. On ARM devices, you can expect performance in the range of 200 to 400 Mb/s. |
+ | |||
+ | Note that enabling **CTF will disable QoS and Bandwidth Limiter**. This is because the switching part of the packet bypasses parts of the standard Linux iptable chains. | ||
+ | |||
+ | * ARM Routers (like the RT-AC68U, RT-AC3200, R7000) support CTF. | ||
+ | * MIPS RT-N routers (like the E4200v1, RT-N16) can use Broadcom FastNAT | ||
+ | * FastNAT is a similar function to forward at accelerated speeds. | ||
+ | * MIPS RT-AC routers (like the RT-AC66U) do not support CTF or FastNAT. | ||
