DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The noct  driver  supports  cards  based  on  the  NetOctave
NSP2000 packet processor.
  The NSP2000 contains a public key processor, random
number generator,
 and packet processor.  The random  number  generator
provides random
 bits to the random(4) subsystem.

     Currently, the packet processor registers with the crypto(9)
subsystem
     only to support  MD5,  SHA1,  DES-CBC,  and  Triple-DES  for
ipsec(4) and
     crypto(4).  The public key engine is not yet supported.
