### Usage Restrictions

|

#### Migration Restrictions
|
||||
|
||||
Hashicorp **does not** support in-place migrations from non-FIPS Inside
|
||||
versions of Vault to FIPS Inside versions of Vault, regardless of version.
|
||||
A fresh cluster installation is required to receive support. We generally

Combined, we suggest leaving the existing cluster in place, and carefully

consider migration of specific workloads to the FIPS-backed cluster.
|

|
||||
#### Entropy Augmentation Restrictions
|
||||
|
||||
Entropy Augmentation **does not** work with FIPS 140-2 Inside. The internal
|
||||
BoringCrypto RNG is FIPS 140-2 certified and does not accept entropy from
|
||||
other sources. Attempting to use Entropy Augmentation will result in failures
|
||||
at runtime such as `panic: boringcrypto: invalid code execution`.
|
||||
|
||||
#### TLS Restrictions
|
||||
|
||||
Vault Enterprise's FIPS modifications include restrictions to supported TLS
|
||||
cipher suites and key information. Only the following cipher suites are
|
||||
allowed:
|
||||
|
||||
- `TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256`,
|
||||
- `TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384`,
|
||||
- `TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256`,
|
||||
- `TLS_ECDHE_ECDSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384`,
|
||||
- `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_GCM_SHA256`, and
|
||||
- `TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_256_GCM_SHA384`.
|
||||
|
||||
Additionally, only the following key types are allowed in TLS chains of trust:
|
||||
|
||||
- RSA 2048, 3072, 4096, 7680, and 8192-bit;
|
||||
- ECDSA P-256, P-384, and P-521.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, only TLSv1.2 or higher is supported in FIPS mode. These are in line
|
||||
with recent NIST guidance and recommendations.
