I've heard from people who have tested ALIX hardware to max out at about 10 Mbps IPsec throughput with 3DES. DES and 3DES are significantly slower than any other encryption algorithm we support. With AES, Blowfish or CAST128 you can probably get around 15 Mb through an ALIX. If you require 3DES you'll likely need something with 1 GHz CPU to push that much and have adequate power to spare for other traffic and services. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
