Note 1 = The key for these commands is input through the PCI bus (data input interface)

Note 2 = This is a PKCS 12 method for deriving a 3DES key from a password, salt and iteration count.

Note 3 = The Exponentiation Using CRT and Exponentiation functions are generic math functions; all parameters are input through the PCI interface (data input interface).

Note 4 = When operating in the FIPS140-1 mode, it is not possible for secret keys, private keys or critical security parameters to cross the PCI bus without being wrapped (encrypted) using the Key-Wrapping Key.

Note 5 = User Login is the process that takes the board from an unauthenticated state to the authenticated state. Only one user may be authenticated at a particular time. Consequently, the User Login process cannot be started from the authenticated state. Nonetheless, the User Login process cannot be completed successfully without authentication.

Note 6 = This command is used for generating the key-wrapping-key.

Note 7 = When the board is in the zeroized state, it is possible to for an unauthenticated user to uninitialize the board.

Note 8 = These operations must access stored cryptographic keys. The keys may not be input through the PCI interface.
