Hi All,
Has anybody been able to get Padlock accelerated SHA1 working on a C7
or is this not currently possible?
The CPU has the capability:

OK, thanks for the response.
That being the case, can anybody give me any advice on what hardware I would
need to achieve gigabit VPN throughput (aes/3des & md5/sha1) with ipsec?

OK that makes sense!
Thanks to everyo
Hi all,
I'm looking for any advice on what hardware would be suitable to achieve a
gigabit capable point to point ipsec vpn (using aes/3des & sha1/md5).
Has anybody done this?
Many thanks!

Hi All,
I have a Silicom PESB62 card (based on Broadcom 5862 chip).
www.openbsd.org/crypto.html says:
"Support for the BCM5825, BCM5860, BCM5861, and BCM5862 including support for
AES with the BCM5823 or newer was added before 4.5."
However it doesnt seem to be recognised properly:
