Nokia IP290 Security Platform Installation Guide
Configuring Software to Use Hardware Acceleration
The Nokia encryption accelerator software package is part of the Nokia IPSO operating system,
so the appliance automatically detects and configures the Nokia encryption accelerator card.
For the Nokia IP290 appliances, SecureXL is on by default. After you install the Nokia
encryption accelerator card and reboot the appliance, SecureXL automatically uses the Nokia
encryption accelerator card for encryption acceleration. If you do not want to use SecureXL for
encryption acceleration, use the Check Point cpconfig utility to disable SecureXL.
You can also configure the IP290 appliances to use the Nokia encryption accelerator card for
IKE acceleration. When you enable IKE acceleration, the Nokia encryption accelerator card
performs cryptographic operations for IPsec tunnel negotiation.
To enable IKE acceleration
1.
From the Network Voyager home page, click Security and Access Configuration, then click
IKE Acceleration.
For information about how to access Network Voyager and the related reference materials,
see

on page 36.
2.
On the IKE Acceleration page, click Register the module.
3.
Click Apply.
The PKCS#11 token that enables IKE acceleration is registered with the Check Point software
on your appliance. After you register the module, you must install the Check Point security
policy on the firewall for the Nokia encryption accelerator card to perform IKE acceleration.
