The Internal Key Storage token ("Certificate DB token" in Figure 1-5 on
page 58) handles all communication with the certificate and key database
files (called certX.db and keyX.db, respectively, where X is a version
number) that store certificates and keys.
• FIPS 140-1 module. This module complies with the FIPS 140-1 government
standard for implementations of cryptographic modules. Many products sold
to the US government must comply with one or more of the FIPS standards.
The FIPS 140-1 module includes a single, built-in FIPS 140-1 Certificate DB
token (as shown in Figure 1-5 on page 58), which handles both cryptographic
operations and communication with the certX.db and keyX.db files.
Any PKCS #11 module can be used with CMS. The server uses a file called
secmod.db to keep track of the modules that are available. You can modify this file
using the tool, which is explained in the following documentation:
modutil
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/pki/nss/tools/
For example, you need to modify secmod.db if you are installing hardware
accelerators for use in signing operations.
