[c-nsp] SA-VAM2+ usage problem?

On average, the VAM2+ should be able to do ~60Mbps VPN traffic (on a 7206VXR
NPEG2)
Maybe try to use IPSEC profile configuration instead of the legacy interface
crypto map configuration.  
And also, try a different IOS.  There should be at least a 12.4.15T7 out
there I believe.

Subject: [c-nsp] SA-VAM2+ usage problem?

Hello,

I have two 7201 (c7200p-advipservicesk9-mz.124-15.T3.bin) routers with 
SA-VAM2+ modules.

I have a tunnel interface between this routers. If I make a ~24Mbit/sec 
traffic into this tunnel, the routers CPU's goes to 90%. It was the 
performance without VAM2+ too. So the VAM2+ modul doesn't use?

Our routers config same, only the IP addresses different. The Tunnel 
interface very important, because i run an OSPF protokoll into them.

In this last line the 24058078 bit/s traffic is normal, it is the 
aggregated traffic on my tunnel0 interface. But the "562 Kbit/sec in" 
and "592 Kbits/sec out" is to small, i think it should ~24000 Kbit/sec.

Any idea?

Thanks!
