Pushing IPsec (AES, HMAC-SHA2-256) traffic to an .11g access point at the maximum data rate of just under 2 MB/s takes about 40..45% CPU of my Pentium-III 800 MHz gateway here. This should scale approximately with the clock difference for your box, so yes, I think it can handle it. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber [EMAIL PROTECTED]
