FAQs

Q: Is this ESP crypto-capable?
A: Yes. It supports hardware-assisted IPsec on platforms with appropriate licensing.

Q: Can I mix a 20 Gbps ESP with a different-capacity ESP in HA?
A: Mixing is not recommended; use identical ESP capacities/models for redundancy.

Q: Does it include any IOS XE feature licenses?
A: No. Licenses for security, MPLS, or SD-WAN features are purchased separately.

Q: Which chassis support this ESP?
