Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The Juniper Networks RE1800 and RE2600 Routing Engines, are multi-chip embedded cryptographic modules that control a router or switch's interfaces, system management, and user access to the device. The RE runs Junos 14.1R4 with the FIPS mode package. The RE is compatible with the Juniper Networks MX Series 3D Universal Edge Routers, EX Series Switches, T Series Routers, M Series Multiservice Edge Routers, and PTX Series Packet Transport Routers. These devices provide dedicated high-performance flow processing and integrate advanced security capabilities.
