Module Name
Aruba AP-134 and AP-135 Wireless Access Points
Historical Reason
186-2 transition
Caveat
When operated in FIPS mode with tamper evident labels installed as indicated in the Security Policy. The module generates cryptographic keys whose strengths are modified by available entropy
Security Level Exceptions
- Mitigation of Other Attacks: N/A
Embodiment
Multi-chip standalone
Description
Aruba's Wi-Fi access points serve as secure network on-ramps, aggregating wireless user traffic and forwarding it to Aruba's highly secure Mobility Controllers, where per-user role based access controls are applied through an integrated firewall. In FIPS 140-2 Mode, Aruba APs in conjunction with the Mobility Controller support the IEEE 802.11i/WPA2 client standard along with optional Suite B cryptography. Aruba APs also provide wireless intrusion detection/prevention services, support wireless mesh topologies, and have Wi-Fi Alliance certification for IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n.
Other Algorithms
Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 112 bits of encryption strength; non-compliant less than 112 bits of encryption strength); EC Diffie-Hellman (key agreement; key establishment methodology provides 128 or 192 bits of encryption strength); MD5; NDRNG
