CCR multicore encryption

Dear All!

Please explaine me, wheather CCR models may encrypt aes-128 or ipsec aes-128 in hardware way and HOW MANY CORES I can assign for encryption?

For example on 1100AHx2 model I can assign only 1 core for encryption purposes… So what about CCR ???

currently hardware encryption is not enabled in software, so I can’t say how it will work, but we are working on the driver, as the CPU supports it.

thanx for reply… 2 more questions..

  1. So if hardware encryption awaits its time, then what about non-hardware encryption… will several (all) cores work for encryption tasks simultaneously and 100% loaded? and what is total encrypted traffic throughput for both CCR models ?
  2. What is approximate time for hardware encryption development?

  1. You will get the same speed as on RB1100 without HW encryption - around 150Mbps with 1470byte packets.

for which CCR model it is applicable ?
