IPsec IP Core
Extreme Speed IPsec IP Core
IPsec (Internet Protocol Security) is a widely accepted and adopted security protocol, ensuring secure communication over the Internet. Xiphera’s IPsec core implements ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload) frame processing in the IPsec protocol using Xiphera’s own AES256-GCM. The IPsec protocol secures the communication traffic on Layer 3 of the OSI model by assuring that a received frame has been sent by a transmitting station that claimed to send it, and by encrypting the contents.
Xiphera’s scalable extreme-speed IPsec IP core (XIP7013E) is best suited for traffic on links from 10 Gb/s to 200 Gb/s links with high-end FPGAs. The IP core has been designed for easy integration for FPGAs in a vendor-agnostic design methodology.
ESP frame processing
up to 200 Gb/s throughput
Compliant with IPsec protocol
Features
Performance:
- The extreme-speed IPsec achieves a throughput in the 200 Gb/s range
- The IP core does not require any extra interpacket gap cycles even when it processes short packets
Standard Compliance:
- The scalable IPsec is compliant with RFC4303
- The cipher suite (AES256- GCM) is fully compliant with the Advanced Encryption Algorithm (AES) standard, as well as with the Galois Counter Mode (GCM) standard
Easy Interfacing:
- The extreme-speed IPsec uses a streaming interface for payload data and side-channel signalling for the required ESP frame parameters
OSI Network Model
Data Sheet and Product Details
Functionality
The XIP7013E IP encrypts and authenticates IPsec ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload) packets in the Transmit (Tx) direction and decrypts and validates the authenticity of IPsec ESP packets in the receive (Rx) direction. The ESP packet processing can be used in five different modes allowing either payload authentication, encryption with or without optional IV (Initialisation Vector), or bypassing the payload as it is.
