Does Ryzen 2500U have AES acceleration? AMD website don't list the details (2024)

Product specs at https://www.amd.com/en/products/apu/amd-ryzen-5-2500u#product-specs do not list AES at "Key features", while for example for https://www.amd.com/en/products/cpu/amd-ryzen-7-pro-1700x it does mention AES.

I'd like an (affordable) AMD cpu for a router/firewall/low end VPN server and for the VPN it is absolutely necessary to have something which compares to the other cpu manufacturer's AES-NI. The difference can be over 300% in performance.

Internet searches have been rather inconclusive and none of the sources have been AMD itself, so cannot really be trusted.
