Physical Description
Cryptographic Module Boundaries
For FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validation, the Controller has been validated as a multi-chip standalone
cryptographic module. The opaque hard plastic (Aruba 7005 Controller only) or metal chassis physically
encloses the complete set of hardware and firmware components and represents the cryptographic
boundary of the module. The cryptographic boundary is defined as encompassing the top, front, left, right,
rear, and bottom surfaces of the chassis.
