Title: Intel QuickAssist and AES-NI Support Post by: 0xDECAFBAD on Friday 25 October 2013, 02:07:24 am I'm going to be building an Endian router/firewall off of the Supermicro A1SRi-2758F with the Intel Atom C2758 processor once it is in production. I'm wondering if Endian supports or has plans to support the encryption instruction sets that Intel is implementing that increases encryption performance?
Title: Re: Intel QuickAssist and AES-NI Support Post by: 0xDECAFBAD on Friday 13 December 2013, 01:50:28 am I got the hardware put together and I installed the Endian Community v3 beta on it but I don't think the NICs are working. I see br0, br1, br2 and one of them is the green interface with an IP address but when I run the network wizard from the console connection I get to where it tells me to select the RED interface but it doesn't give me any NIC choices. Is this because there isn't driver support for the Supermicro A1SRi-2758F? The Supermicro specification page for the motherboard says the NICs are "C2000 SoC I354 Quad GbE Controller". I tried connecting all of the NICs to a switch and setting my computer to a static IP that is on the same network as the green interface but I could not get the computer to load the administration web site.

What is the output when you run "lspci" from the console? This should show you if the nics are detected or not. Chances are, these new cotrollers require a newer kernel, EFW is based on kernel 2.6.
