The FireEngine networking stack for the Solaris Operating System (OS) is under development by Sun. Enhanced network performance and a flexible architecture to meet future customer networking needs are twin goals of FireEngine development. Addressing existing requirements, including increased performance and scalability, Disaster Recovery (DR), Secure Internet Protocol (IPSec), and IP Multiprocessing (IPMP), as well as future requirements - such as 10-gigabits per second (Gbps) networking, 100-Gbps networking, and TCP/IP Offload Engine (TOE) - are given equal priority.
