FIPS 140-2 certificate #3551 · Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company · data as of 2026-10-21

Aruba AP-304, AP-305, AP-314, AP-315, AP-334, AP-335, AP-365, and AP-367 Wireless Access Points, from Aruba, a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #3551 at overall level 2. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its validation history, algorithm certificates and security policy, drawn from the NIST CMVP entry.

Historical. SP 800-56Arev3 transition - replaced by certificate #4624. Federal agencies may reference historical validations for existing systems only, not for new procurement.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode. When installed, initialized and configured as specified in Section 13 of the Security Policy. The tamper evident labels installed as indicated in the security policy

Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

Aruba's 802.11ac Wi-Fi access points operate at gigabit speeds, offering extreme performance for mobile devices. In FIPS 140-2 mode, Aruba APs in conjunction with a Mobility Controller support the IEEE 802.11i/WPA2 client standard along with optional Suite B cryptography. Aruba APs also support wireless intrusion detection/prevention services and wireless mesh topologies.
