This security policy describes how the Catalyst 6509 switch and the Cisco 7606 and Cisco 7609 routers
with the VPN Services Module meet the security requirements of FIPS 140-2, and describes how to
operate the hardware devices in a secure FIPS 140-2 mode. This policy was prepared as part of the
Level 2 FIPS 140-2 validation of the Catalyst 6509 switch and the Cisco 7606 and Cisco 7609 routers
with the VPN Services Module.
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
