Installing and Removing the AS II FIPS PIC

Crypto Officers are responsible for the proper handling of any AS II FIPS PICs installed in the router. An AS II FIPS PIC is required for external IPSec sessions (internal Routing-Engine-to-Routing-Engine IPSec sessions do not require an AS II FIPS PIC).

The AS II FIPS PIC holds the Juniper Networks root certificate authority (CA) certificate and the factory default password for the PIC.

You must enable (authorize) all AS II FIPS PICs before use, and zeroize them before removal. If you move the AS II FIPS PIC to another system, you must authorize it for the new system.

This section discusses the following AS II FIPS PIC topics:

Authorizing the AS II FIPS PIC
Obtaining the AS II FIPS PIC Status
Zeroizing the AS II FIPS PIC
