Module description
Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.
The 3e family of Secure Wireless Gateways implements a cryptographic suite including AES, 3DES, SHA-1, HMAC SHA-1, Diffie-Hellman, and HTTPS/TLS. These algorithms are used in combination to protect the main Gateway services of bridging from wired uplink LAN to the wireless LAN, NAT routing from the wired uplink LAN to the wireless LAN, and DHCP service to the local LAN allowing a wired local LAN to exist over the local wireless LAN interface.
Approved algorithms (4)
Other algorithms
RSA (PKCS#1, decryption, vendor affirmed); Diffie-Hellman (key agreement)
