IPsec Offload
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
The ixgbe driver supports IPsec Hardware Offload. When creating Security
|
||||
Associations with "ip xfrm ..." the 'offload' tag option can be used to
|
||||
register the IPsec SA with the driver in order to get higher throughput in
|
||||
the secure communications.
|
||||
|
||||
The offload is also supported for ixgbe's VFs, but the VF must be set as
|
||||
'trusted' and the support must be enabled with::
|
||||
|
||||
ethtool --set-priv-flags eth<x> vf-ipsec on
|
||||
ip link set eth<x> vf <y> trust on
