Network Modules and WAN Interface Cards

Network Modules

When a network module is inserted, it fits into an adapter called the network module expansion bus. The

expansion bus interacts with the PCI bridge in the same way that the fixed LAN ports do; therefore, no

critical security parameters pass through the network module (just as they don't pass through the LAN

ports).

The Advanced Interface Module (AIM) socket, which contains the cryptographic accelerator card,

interacts with only the PCI bridge. There is no direct interaction between the AIM socket and the

network module expansion bus, just as there is no interaction between the fixed AIM socket and the fixed

LAN ports. Furthermore, network modules do not perform any cryptographic functions.

The Cisco 2651 block diagram clearly depicts the distinction between the network module slot and the

AIM socket. The block diagram for the crypto card clearly delineates that the network modules and

network module expansion bus have no direct interaction with the crypto card. Therefore, no security

parameters pass through the network module expansion bus to the crypto card or vice versa.

The expansion bus for the network module card is inside the cryptographic boundary, but it services only

the network modules (physical interfaces) and has no effect on the cryptographic processing of the

module. If the expansion bus were at the router's cryptographic boundary (as opposed to being inside the

boundary), the same principles would apply. While the cryptographic boundary is drawn at the router

case, adding and removing network modules will not compromise the security of the router.

As described in the

module. If someone other than the Crypto Officer attempts to change a network module, the stickers over

the network module slot will indicate tamper evidence. Thus, only valid network modules will be used

and only the proper authority may change them. The

instructions to change network modules in a FIPS-approved manner.

WAN Interface Cards

WICs are similar to network modules in that they greatly increase the router's flexibility. The WICs are

inserted into one of two slots, which are located above the fixed LAN ports. WICs interface directly with

the processor. They do not interface with the cryptographic card; therefore no security parameters will

pass through them. WICs cannot perform cryptographic functions; they only serve as a data input and

data output physical interface. Please refer to the block diagrams for further reference. Only the Crypto

Officer may change WICs, and they must follow the same guidelines for changing network modules (see

the

Console Port

Additionally, the console port does not directly interface with the network modules, the WICs, or the

AIM socket; therefore, no critical security parameters will be passed over the network modules, WICs,

or cryptographic processing card from the terminal.

Conclusion

Network modules and WAN Interface Cards do not affect the cryptographic processing of the router, nor

are they privy to any security parameters contained in the router's cryptographic card. The following

table describes the input data types and output data types of network modules and WICs:
