IPsec Security Gateway Sample Application
=========================================
IP header) is done by the hardware and the application does not need to
add/remove them during outbound/inbound processing.
+For inline offloaded outbound traffic, the application will not do the LPM
+lookup for routing, as the port on which the packet has to be forwarded will be
+part of the SA. Security parameters will be configured on that port only, and
+sending the packet on other ports could result in unencrypted packets being
+sent out.
+
The Path for IPsec Inbound traffic is:
* Read packets from the port.
* *null*: NULL algorithm
* *aes-128-cbc*: AES-CBC 128-bit algorithm
+ * *aes-256-cbc*: AES-CBC 256-bit algorithm
* *aes-128-ctr*: AES-CTR 128-bit algorithm
* Syntax: *cipher_algo <your algorithm>*
``<port_id>``
* Port/device ID of the ethernet/crypto accelerator for which the SA is
- configured. This option is used when *type* is NOT *no-offload*
+ configured. For *inline-crypto-offload* and *inline-protocol-offload*, this
+ port will be used for routing. The routing table will not be referred in
+ this case.
* Optional: No, if *type* is not *no-offload*
