Thanks Ilya. I think there are 2 things we are interested in: 1) If the crypto is done with a FIPS validated module 2) Are the crypto algorithms all FIPS approved
For 2), I think we can choose the encryption algorithms we use in IPSec (Please correct me if I was wrong). For 1), do you have more information on that?
