FAQs

Q: Which platforms support this module?
A: It is designed for Catalyst 6500 Series chassis; check your supervisor and software release notes for specific compatibility.

Q: Does it provide external interfaces?
A: No. It connects through the chassis backplane and is managed by the switch supervisor.

Q: What encryption algorithms are supported?
A: Common IPsec algorithms such as AES and 3DES are supported; refer to the software release for specifics.

Q: Is additional licensing required?
A: A compatible IOS/Supervisor feature set that enables IPsec is required.

Q: How much VPN throughput can I expect?
A: Throughput depends on configuration, traffic mix, and software version; it provides hardware offload to improve performance versus CPU-based encryption.
