18/4-Port Multiservice Federal Information Processing Standards Module
The Cisco MDS 9000 Family 18/4-port Multiservice Federal Information Processing Standards
(MSFM-18/4) module is a FIPS 140-2 Level 3-compliant version of the MSM-18/4 module. The
MSFM-18/4 module is identical to the MSM-18/4 module in form and function, with the exception of
an opaque potting material encapsulating the cryptographic boundary of the MSFM-18/4 module to
prevent unauthorized access and tampering.
Note Cisco MDS 9200 Series switches running Cisco MDS SAN-OS Release 3.2(1) or later support the
18/4-port Multiservice module and the 18/4-port Multiservice FIPS module.
