AFAIK, crypto accel cards will be used by the OpenBSD kernel whenever
possible without further user intervention needed other than plugging
the card and rebooting the system.
Make sure your dmesg displays the hifn* device and make some performance
test: you may be satisfied.

Hi misc,
I bought a Soekris Net5501 with a cryptographic card VPN1411
(Authentication, SHA-1 and MD5, Public Key, RSA, DSA, SSL, IKE and DH,
Hardware random number generator) and I would like to know if any
configuration is needed in OpenBSD kernel to use this card when
cryptography is necessary.
eg. When a VPN IPSec is done.
