    Description

      The 3.2 ESE at-rest encryption feature uses OpenSSL's ability to use AES-NI hardware accelerated instructions to provide adequate performance. Therefore the Production Notes and Production Checklist should be updated to say that if this feature is desired, a CPU with support for the AES-NI instruction set is required.
