Configuring FIPS on NTP

You must configure NTP to perform authentication using FIPS-validated keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HAMC) technique.

This technique protects the integrity of non-local maintenance and diagnostics communications.

When you enable FIPS on NTP, NTP operates in FIPS mode. Meaning, with FIPS enabled, NTP supports authentication either using the HMAC-SHA1 algorithm or no authentication at all.

After enabling NTP, you must enable FIPS to make the NTP server authenticate using HMAC-SHA1.

To enable FIPS mode:

  1. Enter configuration mode.
    OS10# configure terminal
  2. Enable FIPS mode.
    OS10(config)# fips mode enable
