Under FreeBSD the 1401 is supported with a custom kernel config that includes
device crypto device cryptodev device hifn The Hi/fn 7955 onboard supports 128/192/256 AES, but - no idea if ZFS is /dev/crypto aware - I'd be surprised if GELI isn't. - M On Mon, Feb 25, 2013 at 1:23 PM, Georg Bauer <georg.ba...@privatdemail.net> wrote: > > Hello everybody, > > I'm interested at the product "Soekris vpn 1401, for Std.
