=== Encryption ===
 
The Allegro Network Multimeter uses an '''AES256 LUKS encryption container''' for encrypted single shared ring buffers. You can connect and mount the encrypted disk with many Linux Distributions. It will ask for your password to mount the container.
The Allegro uses hardware encryption if available. The Allegro 200 does not have HW encryption support and can encrypt up to 400MBit/s in software. All other Allegro devices can encrypt with 2GB/s by using the built-in hardware encryption.
