Juniper Express 4 MACsec Cryptographic Module
Juniper Networks, Inc. - FIPS 140 #4878
Juniper Express 4 MACsec Cryptographic Module is composed by the MACsec blocks that are part of the Juniper Networks® Express 4 processor in hardware, which provides the AES GCM and XPN algorithm implementations for encrypting and decrypting MACsec traffic, and a device driver in software, which provides the functionality to comply with FIPS 140-3 requirements (i.e. integrity test, self-tests), as well as the API to configure the hardware component.
