Versa Networks Controller
Versa Networks Controller, from Versa Networks, Inc., holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4380 at overall level 1. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its algorithm certificates, its validation history, and the list moves this tracker has observed, which NIST does not date.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys
