v21 XG Home VPN Hardware acceleration

Mike Scott

Good evening,

Back testing XG Home, does v21 support hardware acceleration for IPsec and SSL VPN tunnels?  I have XG Home installed on a XG230 R2 at mo, I have a XG135 R3 that has pfsense + on it atm, so pending successful testing, planning on dropping pfsense and such.  The XG135 R3 has QAT too

    Hello!

    Yes, Sophos Firewall Home Edition does support hardware acceleration for cryptographic stuff.

    Both IPsec and SSLVPN (OpenVPN) utilizes AES-NI.

    The Home Edition doesn't support QAT, but it will use AES-NI.

    Also, I don't think QAT was ever used by Sophos.
