The Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) Publication 140-2 is a standard used to accredit cryptographic modules. More info here: http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips140-2/fips1402.pdfThere is a potential big sale in UK which depends on the compliance of the MC70 with this standard. Question: Is the MC70 or will be compliant?* According to one of the previous roadmaps this is only planned for Fusion 3.x (then not for MC70)* According to MC50 Integrators Guide this terminal is compliant using AEGIS client (not possible on MC70)* According to other document "WPA2 with AES is eligible for FIPS 140-2 compliance." (possible in Fusion 2.55 but just "elegible" for compliance. I guess this doesn't mean that is compliant)Herbert advised that there is a custom MC70 for US Army product which includes WZC instead of Fusion. (Is the CPR or GRIP their only chance or could this configuration be sold to other companies?) Can you provide any useful information, roadmap, workaround or possibility for our MC70 to support it? As always, thanks for your help!

Thanks Dave!
You are correct, this would need to be a CPR or GRIP. The US Army custom includes Zero Config only to allow them to load the Juniper client. The Juniper client is reported to be FIPS compliant. -Dave
