One clarification on the max # of TPS listed for the Netstrcuture 7110.
1000 means that if you chain 5 of them together that's what you get.
Sorry for the confusion. Yes, mod_ssl is not needed on your servers in
that way. I've learned just to day from my Intel Rep, that the 7110
supports multiple certs too. As I've stated however, the new chips from
Intel, foster, etc... are going to have ssl acceleration built in.
Another note, the 7110 is only a rainbow card in a box.
