IPSEC

If you are looking to accelerate IPSec alone, using FPGA is probably not a price-competitive choice since dedicated ASICs exist that can probably do the job at a lower cost. If, however, you envision accelerating several functions outside of your processor cores, then you should probably consider the use of FPGA for carrying out at least IPSec’s computational-intensive components in your offload design.

Silicom has created a pre-Integration of a certain sub-part of IPSec to demonstrate the capabilities of its platform for use in the above-described RegEx machine in combination with IPSec. The usage of this combination can be a vital component in many types of Security Applications.
