      QAT is in base and hence in CE now.

          @stephenw10 Sorry and maybe I am mistaken but I thought QAT was a Plus exclusive feature? I actually installed 2.8.1 just now, none of my QAT hardware appears to have been detected by default. Are there additional steps to enable the modules?

            @latez said in x11sdv-8c-tp8f (xeon-d 2146NT) compatibility?:

            What QAT hardware did you get and is it supported by FreeBSD FreeBSD Manual Pages: qat

            In the Dashboard you would see something like below, if it's supported but not yet active:

            Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C3758R @ 2.40GHz
            8 CPUs: 1 package(s) x 8 core(s)
            AES-NI CPU Crypto: Yes (active)
            QAT Crypto: Yes (inactive)
            

            If it is supported you have to enable it, see pfSense docu: Cryptographic Hardware

                @stephenw10 I apologize for not being more clear. On FreeBSD 14.3

                Where as I cannot kldload qat on the latest pfsense CE release. Hence the module is never loaded. You mentioned it should be in base now, am I doing something wrong?

                  Hmm, I could be mistaken here. The GUI option is there but I don't see the module. Digging....

                    Yup sorry that's my mistake. Too many test machines! QAT is still a Plus only feature.

                    Somehow the CE gui seems to show the option but it can't do anything. That looks like a bug.

                      @stephenw10 OK good, I was going to submit a redmine for the manual since it still listed it as plus only, glad to see that the manual is accurate hah.

                      Thanks!
