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)
