Installing a FIPS Feature Set and Upgrading a FIPS System

This chapter describes the procedure for installing a FIPS feature set (if one is not already present on the system) and upgrading the image on a system that already has FIPS provisioned.

Note:

You enable the FIPS feature set via the Data Integrity entitlement by way of the setup entitlements command.

When enabling the FIPS feature set, the E-SBC warns the user with the following message:

CAUTION: Enabling this feature activates enhanced FIPS security functions. Once saved, factory rest may be required.
