Configuring Software to Use Hardware Acceleration
The Nokia encryption accelerator software package is part of the Nokia IPSO operating system,
so the appliance automatically detects and configures the Nokia encryption accelerator card.
For the Nokia IP560 appliances, SecureXL is on by default. After you install the Nokia
encryption accelerator card and reboot the appliance, SecureXL automatically uses the Nokia
encryption accelerator card for encryption acceleration. If you do not want to use SecureXL for
encryption acceleration, use the Check Point cpconfig utility to disable SecureXL.
You can also configure the IP560 appliances to use the Nokia encryption accelerator card for
IKE acceleration. When you enable IKE acceleration, the Nokia encryption accelerator card
performs cryptographic operations for IPsec tunnel negotiation.
