IPSEC,3DES tunnels on routers

[dagates]

Can someone provide me with a suggested limit on the number of IPSEC tunnels that can be terminated on Cisco 3745, 2611, 1721? At what point would you recommend the hardware accelerator?

The load on the routers is minimal. Memory requirements have not been specified. How much does memory impact the recomendations?

Thanks!

Cisco 2600 up to 800 for 2650 with aim-vpn/ ep up to 800 tunnels

For the cisco 2600xms 2691 and 3725 up to 800 tunnels on cisco

3620 And 3640 and up to 2 000 tunnels on cisco 3660 and 3745.
