Description

 

 

IPSec hardware

Only the Cisco 836 router supports this feature. The Hifn 7902 security

accelerator

processor implements symmetric key encryption, public key encryption,

 

authentication, and data compression in hardware. Algorithms

 

implemented by the processor include Data Encryption Standard (DES)

 

and Triple DES (3DES); Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1), Message

 

Digest 5 (MD5), Hash-based Message Authentication Code (HMAC); and

 

Lempel-Ziv-Stac (LZS) compression and Microsoft Point-to-Point

 

Compression (MPPC).

 

 

Wall-mounting brackets

Mount the router on a wall or other vertical surface.
