Module description
The SFE-HSSI protects information flowing between nodes or sites of a frame relay network. It can be con-figured to either allow or disallow information flow between two frame relay nodes. Furthermore, the information flow can be either protected through encryption or passed without encryption. The SFE-HSSI support full-duplex traffic throughput of between 56-256 kbps for 32-1022 secure connections. The SFE will achieve this throughput for the smaller frames as well (64 byte frames is a target).
