4200 wireguard and hardware acceleration
-
I was considering upgrading from my PfSenseCE device to a 4200 if I can get faster wireguard performance.
I can't find out if Ipsec-MB (IIMB) is available on the 4200.
I'm not sure if the AVX, AVX2, or VAES are utilized by wireguard.
Thanks for any insight.

Yes, the Netgate 4200 supports IIMB and can help with WireGuard, more details here:
