Introduction

1.1

Purpose

This document is the non-proprietary Cryptographic Module Security Policy for the Cisco 2811

and 2821 Integrated Services Routers with AIM-VPN/EPII-Plus installed. This security policy

describes how the Cisco 2811 and 2821 Integrated Services Routers (Hardware Version: 2811 or

2821; Firmware Version: IOS 12.4 (15) T3) meet the security requirements of FIPS 140-2, and

how to operate the router enabled in a secure FIPS 140-2 mode. This policy was prepared as part

of the Level 2 FIPS 140-2 validation of the Cisco 2811 or 2821 Integrated Services router.

FIPS 140-2 (Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 140-2 — Security

Requirements for Cryptographic Modules) details the U.S. Government requirements for

cryptographic modules. More information about the FIPS 140-2 standard and validation program

is available on the NIST website at http://csrc.nist.gov/groups/STM/index.html.
