FIPS Compliance?

[triplecap]

I got this info from the Q&A section on the SSL Module:

Q. Is the SSL module FIPS compliant?

A. The module is not FIPS compliant, but Cisco plans FIPS Level 2 certification in the next release of the product.

When is the next release of the product slated for? Is this going to be a hardware change or simply a code upgrade? Does this mean that the CSM with SSL daughter card will also be FIPS compliant after this next revision?

Thanks in advance,

Eric

Apparently there was initially a plan to fips certified but we stopped it.

Currently, there seems to be no more plan to be certified.
