Description =========== The AXL300 PCI card is designed to relieve a server of its SSL-related exponentiation. The PCI card contains specialized hardware designed to perform the modular exponentiation necessary to establish an SSL connection. Because the hardware on the card is optimized for this operation, it can perform the necessary operations efficiently, without requiring CPU cycles. This allows a server to greatly increase its SSL connection rate and devote more of its processor time to the other aspects of serving secure web pages. The AXL300 PCI offloads security processing overhead so that CPU utilization devoted to exponentiation drops to near zero. Features for Intel-based Systems ================================ Adds a dedicated coprocessor to the ProLiant server, offloading cycle-consuming exponentiation Supports Netscape Enterprise Server 3.5 and 3.6, Apache via OpenSSL 0.9.5, and Microsoft's IIS 5.0 secure application environments. Plugs directly into ProLiant Servers running Windows NT4, Windows 2000, or RedHat 6.2 Linux system Multiple cards (up to eight) provide linear, scalable performance Enabled with Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) to improve performance with CRT-enabled web servers Enabled with Compaq MultiPrime for MultiPrime-enabled applications such as wireless e-Commerce Supports more than 330 SSL connections per second with standard web servers Features for AlphaServer Systems ================================ Overcomes the performance bottleneck of SSL-secured applications Accelerates SSL security processing for secure web application servers such as IIS 5.0, NES, iPlanet, Apache Adds a dedicated co-processor to the Alpha server, offloading cycle-consuming exponentiation Supports more than 330 SSL connections per second with standard Web servers Enabled with Chinese Remainder Theorem (CRT) to improve performance with CRT-enabled applications Enabled with Compaq MultiPrime for MultiPrime-enabled applications such as wireless e-Commerce Provides a much lower cost per SSL connection per second than any product on the market Single card per system (not available on all Alpha platforms, refer to platform Supported Options List) Meets PCI 2.2 specifications for fast and easy installation Plugs directly into AlphaServer PCI I/O bus running Tru64 UNIX (OpenVMS support not available) _Top of page_ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
