by the Setup utility, the wrap key is split onto these two iKeys. When adding an additional ASA 310-FIPS to the cluster, the CODE-SO and the CODE-USER iKeys are used to transfer the wrap key to the HSM cards on NVG device(s) that have been added. Once the wrap key has been transferred, all synchronization of sensitive information within the cluster takes place transparently to the user.

No passwords are associated with the CODE-SO and CODE-USER iKeys. However, for all operations that involves using the CODE-SO and CODE-USER iKeys, these keys are used in addition to the HSM-SO and HSM-USER iKeys (which in turn require the correct passwords for successful authentication).

CAUTION

If you enter the wrong password for the HSM-USER fifteen (15) times in a row, the HSM-USER iKey will be rendered unusable. This is due to the strict security specifications placed on the ASA 310-FIPS.
