PIX Firewall VPN Accelerator Circuit Board
The VPN Accelerator (PIX-VPN-ACCEL) is an encryption and compression accelerator circuit board.
The VPN Accelerator uses a PCI interface and therefore can only be installed in PIX Firewall platforms
with PCI slots. The VPN Accelerator begins to function immediately after installation without the need
of special installation configurations.
Note The new VPN Accelerator cannot be used with the former PIX Firewall IPSec accelerator
in the same chassis. The PIX Firewall IPSec accelerator was also known as the Private
Link card.
