Hi
Thanks for your quick reply
For example, in our test lab,we want to generate 1G traffic between 2
node.If I conduct this traffic on "ipsec" tunnel, how amount of performance
will be decreased? maybe 200MG or more. anyhow, encapsulation of packets has
some overhead on performance.

Thanks in advance
