Usage information
You can use OS10 in FIPS 140-2 compliant mode. In this mode, applications restrict their use of cryptographic algorithms to those supported by the NIST FIPS 140-2 standard and certification process. When you enable FIPS mode:
  • The SSH service restarts. Existing SSH sessions are not affected. Only new SSH sessions operate in the enabled FIPS mode.
  • SSH host keys are regenerated.
  • If SNMPv3 is configured with privacy settings, it operates in FIPS mode.

If you enable FIPS using the crypto fips enable command, RADIUS over TLS operates in FIPS mode. In FIPS mode, RADIUS over TLS requires that a FIPS-compliant certificate and key pair are installed on the switch.

Example
OS10# crypto fips enable
Supported releases
10.4.3.0 or later
