FIPS compliance

The device supports the FIPS mode that complies with NIST FIPS 140-2 requirements. Support for features,
commands, and parameters might differ in FIPS mode and non-FIPS mode. For more information about
FIPS mode, see Security Configuration Guide.

General configuration restrictions and guidelines

When you manage the next-startup configuration files, follow these restrictions and guidelines:
Save the next-startup configuration files to the root directory of the default storage medium. The
device loads startup configuration files only from the default storage medium. You can access the
BootWare menus to specify the built-in flash memory or the USB disk as the default storage
medium.
In standalone mode, make sure both the active and standby MPUs use the same type of storage
medium as the default storage medium.
In IRF mode, make sure all MPUs use the same type of storage medium as the default storage
medium.
If the USB disk is used to store the startup configuration files, do not remove the USB disk during the
startup process. If you remove the USB disk on a device, one of the following consequences occurs:
In standalone mode, the device starts up with the factory defaults.
In IRF mode, the device leaves the IRF fabric at startup and runs the factory defaults.

Enabling configuration encryption

Configuration encryption enables the device to encrypt a startup configuration file automatically when it
saves the running configuration. All HP devices running Comware V7 software use the same private key
or public key to encrypt configuration files.
NOTE:
Only HP devices running Comware V7 software can decrypt the encrypted configuration files.
To enable configuration encryption:
