4.18 ROUTER NDEC2 ENCRYPTION ACCELERATOR FIC

4.18.1 Introduction

ROUTER NDEC2 ENCRYPTION ACCELERATOR FIC, the high network data
encryption card, delivers IPSec and hardware-based IP packet encryption. It supports
multiple hardware encryption/decryption and hash algorithms, thus providing
encryption with high performance and reliability.
The ROUTER NDEC2 ENCRYPTION ACCELERATOR FIC is intended for low-end
and mid-range modular routers. Installed with an ROUTER NDEC2 ENCRYPTION
ACCELERATOR FIC, the main board of your router can implement VPN with
encryption provided by the ROUTER NDEC2 ENCRYPTION ACCELERATOR FIC in
addition to IP packet forwarding.
