      I've got a WatchGuard Firebox XTM 515. It has a card slot populated with some type of hardware accelerator for VPN. I have a matching box at another location I'd like to connect to with an identical card. I'm having trouble identifying the card and I'd like to determine if it can be used with pfSense. The processor on it says Cavium Nitrox PX. Does anyone here have any experience with using this? Is it proprietary or is there an open source way to use this? I did find another forum post from a long time ago here: https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=57416.0

          Cavium Nitrox is not supported.

            Yup, still not supported AFAIK.

            Feel free to reverse engineer it and write a driver though.  ;)
