The Cisco VPN Advanced Integration Module cryptographic accelerator, part number AIM-VPN/SSL-2=, is designed to significantly enhance the performance of secure communications in supported Cisco devices. The module is specifically optimised for tasks involving VPN encryption and decryption as well as Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) processing. With hardware-based acceleration, it allows for greater throughput when handling encrypted traffic, making it suitable for organisations that require reliable, high-speed secure data transmission.
This cryptographic accelerator is capable of supporting a broad array of secure communication protocols, including IPSec, SSL, and Secure Shell (SSH). Its specialised architecture ensures that heavy cryptographic tasks are offloaded from the router’s main processor, facilitating better overall system performance. The AIM-VPN/SSL-2= supports high-performance encryption for both 3DES and AES standards, making it adaptable to various security needs, from modest to highly secure data environments.
Another key function of the AIM-VPN/SSL-2= module is its ability to handle IP-based remote site-to-site VPNs as well as remote client access VPNs. By accelerating these processes, businesses can achieve enhanced performance for users working remotely, without compromising security. The module is seamlessly integrated into the router chassis slot and works autonomously once configured, requiring minimal operational oversight.
The module is designed for use in specific Cisco Integrated Service Routers (ISR), ensuring compatibility with existing Cisco infrastructures. It also supports scalable VPN architectures, allowing businesses to deploy multiple VPN tunnels without experiencing performance degradation. With this module, organisations can scale their secure network environments efficiently while maintaining rapid data processing speeds.
