JUNIPER SA-VAM2+

The Service Adapter VPN Acceleration Module 2 (SA-VAM2) is a single-width port adapter supported on the Cisco 7301 router and the Cisco 7200 series routers with the network processing engine 225 (NPE-225), 400 (NPE-400), G1 (NPE-G1), and the Network Services Engine (NSE-1) services accelerator.

An SA-VAM2 provides hardware-assisted tunneling and encryption/compression services for Virtual Private Network (VPN) remote access, site-to-site intranets, and extranet applications, including security, quality of service (QoS), firewall and intrusion detection, and service-level validation and management. The SA-VAM2 offloads IPSec processing from the main processor to permit resources on the processor engines for other tasks.
