I've tried a vpn1401 (PCI card) in two different machines (both
8.0-RELEASE-p2, i386 and amd64). I've added hifn_load="YES" to the
loader.conf and I saw "GEOM_ELI: Crypto: hardware" during kernel
boot. But both systems stopped working when accessing the eli devices
(zfs import in my case). The system works fine without the card.

Is anybody of you using this card successfully with 8.0-RELEASE?

P.S.: I've tried the FreeBSD forum already without success:
