Abstract: A networking system includes a pluggable security device comprising at least one port interface that is insertable into at least one physical port, memory that stores a security key used to provide security over a network link, and processing circuitry coupled with the at least one port interface and with the memory. The processing circuitry utilizes the security key to verify security of a point-to-point connection established over the network link and after verifying the security of the point-to-point connection, provides a data integrity check function for data packets received at the at least one port interface.

Abstract: An authentication method, network switch, and network device are provided. In one example, a method is described that includes receiving a first signal indicative of a data lane being activated and configured to carry data to or within the network switch, receiving a second signal indicative of an authentication lane being established in the network switch or a device connected to the network switch, where the authentication lane is different from the data lane, and enabling data transmission across the data lane only in response to receiving the second signal indicative of the authentication lane being established.
