Note 1 =

The key for these commands is input through the PCI bus (data input interface)

Note 2 =

This is a PKCS 12 method for deriving a 3DES key from a password, salt and iteration count.

Note 3 =

The Exponentiation Using CRT and Exponentiation functions are generic math functions; all

parameters are input through the PCI interface (data input interface).

Note 4 =

When operating in the FIPS140-1 mode, it is not possible for secret keys, private keys or critical

security parameters to cross the PCI bus without being wrapped (encrypted) using the Key-Wrapping

Key.

Note 5 =

User Login is the process that takes the board from an unauthenticated state to the authenticated

state. Only one user may be authenticated at a particular time. Consequently, the User Login process

cannot be started from the authenticated state. Nonetheless, the User Login process cannot be

completed successfully without authentication.

Note 6 =

This command is used for generating the key-wrapping-key.

Note 7 =

When the board is in the zeroized state, it is possible to for an unauthenticated user to uninitialize

the board.

Note 8 =

These operations must access stored cryptographic keys. The keys may not be input through the

PCI interface.
