Configuring Software to Use Hardware
Acceleration
Use Network Voyager to configure virtual private network (VPN) tunnels to
use hardware acceleration. This step is necessary for both the built-in
hardware accelerators and for the optional encryption accelerator card on the
IP380 appliance.
The way you enable the software depends on whether you create VPN tunnels
with Network Voyager or with Check Point software. If you use Network
Voyager to create a VPN tunnel, see
“To configure IPsec”
on page 72. If you
use Check Point software to create a VPN tunnel, see
“To configure Check
Point VPN”
on page 72.
