Government Systems Technology Group of Scottsdale, Arizona, for Network Encryption Systems(NES). Motorola, Inc. is the only National Security Agency-approved and Department of the Navy-approved manufacturer of the NES. 0001 Improved Performance 802.3 Network Encryption System (including User Manual), Rackmount Version, Motorola Part Number 01- P37200A0013, 2 each. 0002 Improved Performance Dual Stack LAN/ INTERNET, including Software Disk, License Package, and 12-month Maintenance, Motorola Part Number 78-P35604N, 2 each. 0003 Product Server Software, including Software Dick, License Package, and System Administration Manual, Motorola Part Number 78-P37484M, 1 each. 0004 802.3 Accessory Kit Thick Net (10 BASE 5), including: One Ethernet Cable/Tranceiver, One TEMPEST Ethernet Cable/ Tranceiver, Spare Battery and Fuses, Motorola Part Number 78- P39926L, 2 each. SALIENT FEATURES OF THE NES: The Network Encryption System is a network security device designed in accordance with Secure Data Network Standards (SDNS) and endorsed and approved by the National Security Agency and the U.S. Navy to handle Government classified (TYPE I) data up to the Top Secret level. The NES must provide data confidentiality, data integrity, peer identification and authentication and mandatory/discretionary access control services. --The internal design of the NES shall be based on a security kernel with an open architecture to support a variety of commercially available VME Input-Output processor boards and loadable application software. --The NES hardware shall be factory-configured to customer specifications, with the appropriate I/O processor boards and ready for field installation of software for particular Navy needs. --The NES shall be able to be configured using a 3.5-inch floppy configuration disk that is created at the Motorola Product Server already in place in Code 70. This configuration disk shall contain the application software, identify-based access control (IBAC) tables, static routing tables and other configuration information. --This software shall be totally compatible with the Network Encryption System when this 3.5- inch floppy disk is inserted in the Network Encryption System disk drive. --The NES shall be keyed using material supplied by the NSA Electronic Key Management System (EKMS). --A KSD-64A containing a non-forgeable certificate and the NES identity and security classification shall be loaded at the NES front panel. This key shall be an Operational Key, or a Seed Key to receive Operational Keys electronically. --The front panel of the NES unit shall include a key port, a 16-character display, floppy disk, power switch, fuse, battery compartment and LED status indicator. --The traffic encryption keys of the NES shall be created and destroyed automatically, and never reside outside of the security kernel. -- The NES shall be able to support multiple security communities operating on a BLACK network. --Host Side Physical Interface: IEEE 802.3 / Ethernet Version 1.0 and 2.0. --Network Side Physical Interface: IEEE 802.3 / Ethernet Version 1.0 and 2.0. --Operator Interface: 16 Character Single-Line Liquid Crystal Display, Multicolor LED Status Indicator, Datakey Port (KSD-64A), Zeroize Function, 3.5-inch Disk Drive for loading application software configuration and storing audit information, Security Battery Compartment, Power ON/OFF switch, Fuse, Host and Network Side Asynchronous RS-232 Diagnostic Ports. --Performance: 1.4Mbps (half duplex), At least 220 Packets Per Second (128 byte packets). - -Physical Characteristics: 17-inch height, 7 inches wide, 18-inch depth, 28 pounds, Stand-alone Cabinet with Rack-mountable Brackets. --Environmental: Zero degrees Centigrade (C) to +50 degrees C Operating, -40 degrees C to 85 degrees C Storage, 90% Relative Humidity (non-condensing) Operating, 95% Storage. --Power: 90 to 125 VAC at 47 to 63 Hz Single-Phase, 100 Watts typical Power Consumption. --Certification and Endorsement: NSA Type I COMSEC up to Top Secret, U.S. Navy Type I COMSEC up to Top Secret, TEMPEST- approved, Tamper protected, CCI (Controlled Cryptographic Item) rating. --Key Management: Meets Secure Data Network System (SDNS) Standards, Supports both physical and electronic Key distribution, Single Crypto Ignition Key (CIK) support, Up to 250 active traffic encryption keys (least recent used algorithm), Up to 16 simultaneous SDNS Key Management Exchanges for traffic Key generation. --Security: Unit is unclassified when the configuration floppy disk and physical Crypto Ignition Key is removed. COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS: --Compatibility/ Interoperability: 100% compatible and interoperable with Motorola Improved Performance 802.3 Network Encryption Systems already in use at NUWC and other Navy activities that the NES will be interfacing with. --100% compatible with the Motorola Product Server Software that is already in use at NUWC. --Functionality: Functions so similar to the Motorola Network Encryption Systems already in place that Motorola-trained personnel do not require any retraining to operate the NES. FOB Destination. Delivery required 30 Days After Award. Only written requests for a copy of the solicitation will be honored. See Note 22. (0108)
