The
hifn driver supports various cards containing the Hifn 7751, 7951, 7811, 7955, and 7956 chipsets, such as
Invertex AEON
No longer being made. Came as 128KB SRAM model, or 2MB DRAM model.
Hifn 7751
Reference board with 512KB SRAM.
PowerCrypt
See http://www.powercrypt.com/. Comes with 512KB SRAM.
XL-Crypt
See http://www.powercrypt.com/. Only board based on 7811 (which is faster than 7751 and has a random number generator).
NetSec 7751
See http://www.netsec.net/. Supports the most IPsec sessions, with 1MB SRAM.
Soekris Engineering vpn1201 and vpn1211
See http://www.soekris.com/. Contains a 7951 and supports symmetric and random number operations.
Soekris Engineering vpn1401 and vpn1411
See http://www.soekris.com/. Contains a 7955 and supports symmetric and random number operations.
The
hifn driver registers itself to accelerate DES, Triple-DES, AES (7955 and 7956 only), ARC4, MD5, MD5-HMAC, SHA1, and SHA1-HMAC operations for
opencrypto(9), and thus for
fast_ipsec(4) and
crypto(4).
The Hifn 7951, 7811, 7955, and 7956 may also supply data to the kernel
rnd(4) subsystem.
