Try looking at some of the IPSec encryption compliant firewalls on the
market. The "spi" portion of IPSec allows for the integration of any
encryption algorithm for use with the IPSec module. That way, you can
plug-in any encryption algorithm you want, regardless of which encryption
the firewall ships with.
We're working with a Swedish company that's using their government
approved encryption with the IPSec compliant version of our firewall.
