MacSec Verification IP

The MacSec Verification IP provides an effective & efficient way to verify the components interfacing with Ethernet interface of an IP or SoC. The MacSec Ethernet VIP is fully compliant with IEEE standard 802.1AE-2018 specification. This VIP is lightweight with an easy plug -and- play interface so that there is no hit on the design cycle time.
