Actually, now they are included in the 515E-UR for free! You still need to purchase it in the 515E-R models, I believe. This card increases throughput for DES and 3DES to over 63Mbps. It works basically like a math-coprocessor and offloads all of the IPSec encryption traffic so that the main processor does not have to work so hard.
Here is the Q&A for the "E" models http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/fw/sqfw500/prodlit/p615e_qa.htm And here is the data sheet for the VPN Accelerator card that you are finding http://www.cisco.com/warp/public/cc/pd/fw/sqfw500/prodlit/vac_ds.htm Hope that helps, Tim CCIE 9015 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, May 28, 2002 3:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: PIX 515E Question [7:45206] The card is a SafeNet Crypt PCI card. It looks exactly like the VPN accelerator card I used last year for the 515. What's up? Now we have to buy these things?????
