[Openswan Users] IPSec Hardware Acceleration

[hiren joshi]

Hello,

I am interested in enhancing IPSec thruput of KLIPS stack.

Could anyone please share their experiences on this?

1. Which card to prefer which can give plug-and-play kind of
integration (I am looking at gigabit thruput rates). My host system
runs on linux-2.6.16.13
2. How does it hook up with KLIPS (OCF, non OCF)
3. Any performance data of the accelerated system
4. Any other (pros/cons) of the reference system

I am at a very early stage - and am evaluating options of cards that
can give me gigabit rates and easily integrate with Openswan/KLIPS.

Thanks in advance.
