You can check the value of the property fips.approved.mode.enabled in <fglam_home>/state/default/config/client.config file to see in which mode this Agent Manager is running. If the property is True, it means this Agent Manager is FIPS-compliant, and vice versa. In case the property is not found, it means this Agent Manager is not FIPS-compliant as well.
CAUTION: Do NOT change the value of fips.approved.mode.enabled property, otherwise the Agent Manager won’t work with the Foglight Management Server if their FIPS-compliant modes are inconsistent. |
When FIPS-compliant mode is enabled:

It is not recommended to enable the ssl-allow-self-signed configuration in FIPS-compliant mode for security consideration. |
The Foglight® Management Server can collect usage data about your environment and send it to Quest Software Inc. to improve support response. This data helps Quest Software Inc. identify potential bottlenecks, and improve the overall Management Server performance and server versions going forward.
A major component of FISMA implementation is the publication by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), entitled “Recommended Security Controls for Federal Information Systems”, listed as NIST Special Publication 800-53 (for additional information about this document, see http://csrc.nist.gov/publications/PubsSPs.html#800-53). This document presents 17 general security categories that can be used to evaluate an information security to measure its level of compliance with FISMA. For this reason, this appendix offers the 17 categories listed in 800-53 and describes how Foglight® addresses them.
