OpenVPN with aesni support

igorlor

Hello everyone,

I am trying to set up a VPN with aesni support but when i try to do the following line it doesnt find the engine:

./openvpn --dev tun --proto udp --port 11000 --secret secret.key --ifconfig 192.168.222.10 192.168.222.11
--tun-mtu 9000 --fragment 0 --mssfix 0 --cipher aes-256-cbc --engine aesni --remote server

The weird thing is that i am using last openssl versin with aesni support and when i do "openssl speed -evp aes128-cbc" i get like 6Gbit/s, so apparentely it uses hardware encryption.

Does anyone know how i could set up OpenVPN with aesni support?

PS: I am following this article : http://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/Gigabit_Networks_Linux

Thanks in advance,

igorlor
