XIP1213H, High-speed MACSEC AES256-GCM High-Speed IP Core targeting 10G/25G/40G links
About this offer
XIP1213H from Xiphera is a high-speed Intellectual Property (IP) core implementing the MACsec protocol as standardized in IEEE Std 802.1AE-2018.The MACsec protocol defines a security infrastructure for Layer 2 (as per the OSI model) traffic by assuring that a received frame has been sent by a transmitting station that claimed to send it. Furthermore, the traffic between stations is both encrypted to provide data confidentiality and authenticated to provide data integrity.XIP1213H uses Advanced Encryption Standard with 256 bits long key in Galois Counter Mode (AES-GCM) to protect data confidentiality, data integrity and data origin authentication. The cipher suite is denoted either as GCM-AES-XPN-256 if the eXtended Packet Numbering (XPN) is in use, or as GCM-AES-XPN-256 if XPN is not in use. Both GCM-AES-256 and GCM-AES-XPN-256 use Xiphera’s IP core XIP1113H as the underlying building block for AES-GCM.XIP1213H is best suited for traffic on 10/25/40 Gbps links. XIP1213H can also in selected cases be retrofitted to existing FPGA designs without requiring a board re-spin, either if there are enough FPGA resources available or if a pin-compatible FPGA with additional resources can be used. Key management (including key exchange) lies outside the scope of 802.1AE, and hence the functionality of XIP1213H is based on the assumption that key management is performed by externally to XIP1213H.Moderate resource requirements: The entire XIP1213H requires 53842 Adaptive Lookup Modules (ALMs) (Intel Agilex® F), and does not require any multipliers or DSPBlocks in a typical FPGA implementation. Performance: XIP1213H achieves a throughput in the tens of Gbps range, for example 49.25+ Gbps in Intel Agilex® F. Standard Compliance: XIP1213H is fully compliant with the MACsec protocol as standardized in IEEE Std 802.1AE-2018. The cipher suite (GCM-AES-128 or GCM-AES-XPN-128) is fully compliant with the Advanced Encryption Algorithm (AES) standard FIPS-197, as well as with the Galois Counter Mode (GCM) standard SP 800-38D.Test Vector Compliance: XIP1213H passes the relevant test vectors specified in Annex C of IEEE Std 802.1AE-2018.
