Fairly easy. For those hardware accelerators which are supported by the OpenSSL engine version, all you need to do is to compile modSSL with the engine version of OpenSSL (present as a separate version of OpenSSL from OpenSSL 0.9.6 on), and include a line in httpd.conf setting SSLCryptoDevice to the engine you wish to use.
I've set this up on Solaris, HP UX, AIX, Linux, and FreeBSD.

Dear all, Has anyone had any experience with hardware acceleration? specifically: How easy is it to get MOD_SSL to be configured with hardware SSL cards (any cards to avoid/recommend). We have Sun hardware (so Sun/Sonicwall ?) Does anything need to be recompiled? which versions of OpenSSL are supported etc. Any specific experiences with iAS would be excellent. What are the performance advantages? Anything tio watch out for? TIA Mikey All telephone calls are recorded and may be monitored.
