> Hi,
>
> yesterday I bought a network card to connect a second PC
> to my old machine.
> They had only one type of card in the store so I bought it anyway,
> despite its rather high price of 37 Euro.
>
> Today I took a closer look.
> It is an Intel PRO/100 S board packaged in
> plastic pack, without docs.
> It comes with 3 wire cable labeled
> "BIZLINK" and has "TRIPLE DES" on a label.
>
> As far as I can tell from a bit of Google
> research, it features hardware encryprtion/decryption.
>
> Questions:
> - Can I use it under FreeBSD?
Yes, as an fxp(4).
> - Can I make use of that hardware acceleration?
Not under FreeBSD.
> - What is the 3 wire cable for?
For WOL.
