Under this NSCIB, TrustCB B.V. has the task of issuing certificates for IT security products, as well as for protection profiles and sites. Part of the procedure is the technical examination (evaluation) of the product, protection profile or site according to the Common Criteria assessment guidelines published by the NSCIB. Evaluations are performed by an IT Security Evaluation Facility (ITSEF) under the oversight of the NSCIB Certification Body, which is operated by TrustCB B.V. in cooperation with the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations. An ITSEF in the Netherlands is a commercial facility that has been licensed by TrustCB B.V. to perform Common Criteria evaluations; a significant requirement for such a licence is accreditation to the requirements of ISO Standard 17025 ' General requirements for the accreditation of calibration and testing laboratories ' . By awarding a Common Criteria certificate, TrustCB B.V. asserts that the product or site complies with the security requirements specified in the associated (site) security target, or that the protection profile (PP) complies with the requirements for PP evaluation specified in the Common Criteria for Information Security Evaluation. A (site) security target is a requirements specification document that defines the scope of the evaluation activities. The consumer should review the (site) security target or protection profile, in addition to this certification report, to gain an understanding of any assumptions made during the evaluation, the IT product's intended environment, its security requirements, and the level of confidence (i.e., the evaluation assurance level) that the product or site satisfies the security requirements stated in the (site) security target.

Since September 2014 the CCRA has been updated to provide mutual recognition of certificates based on cPPs (exact use) or STs with evaluation assurance components up to and including EAL2+ALC_FLR. For details of the current list of signatory nations and approved certification schemes, see http://www.commoncriteriaportal.org. #### European recognition The SOG-IS MRA Version 3, effective since April 2010, provides mutual recognition in Europe of Common Criteria and ITSEC certificates at a basic evaluation level for all products. A higher recognition level for evaluation levels beyond EAL4 (respectively E3-basic) is provided for products related to specific technical domains. This agreement was signed initially by Finland, France, Germany, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom. Italy joined the SOG-IS MRA in December 2010. For details of the current list of signatory nations, approved certification schemes and the list of technical domains for which the higher recognition applies, see https://www.sogis.eu. ® TrustCB is a registered trademark.

The developer of the H3C Wireless Controllers and Access Points is New H3C Technologies Co Ltd located in Hangzou, China and they also act as the sponsor of the evaluation and certification. A Certification Report is intended to assist prospective consumers when judging the suitability of the IT security properties of the product for their particular requirements. The TOE combines Wireless Access Controllers and Access Points to create a Wireless LAN Access System. The TOE provides secure wireless access to a wired and wireless network. The Wireless Access Controller is used to manage the Access Points over a secure connection. The TOE is a distributed network device consisting of one wireless Access Controller (AC) and at least one Access Point (AP) The Wireless Access Controller can connect to external NTP and Syslog servers over a secure connection, or these functions can be performed with the TOE`s local interfaces. The TOE has been evaluated by Keysight Technologies Netherlands Riscure B.V located in Delft, The Netherlands. The evaluation was completed on 23 October 2025 with the approval of the ETR. The certification procedure has been conducted in accordance with the provisions of the Netherlands Scheme for Certification in the Area of IT Security [NSCIB] . The scope of the evaluation is defined by the security target [ST] , which identifies assumptions made during the evaluation, the intended environment for the H3C Wireless Controllers and Access Points, the security requirements, and the level of confidence (evaluation assurance level) at which the product is intended to satisfy the security requirements. Consumers of the H3C Wireless Controllers and Access Points are advised to verify that their own environment is consistent with the security target, and to give due consideration to the comments, observations and recommendations in this certification report. The results documented in the evaluation technical report [ETR] 1 for this product provide sufficient evidence that the TOE meets the EAL2 augmented (EAL2+) assurance requirements for the evaluated security functionality. This assurance level is augmented with ALC_FLR.2 (Flaw remediation).

The TOE is comprised of the following main components: | Delivery item type | Identifier | Version | |----------------------|---------------------|-------------------------| | Hardware | Wireless controller | WX5800 | | Hardware | Wireless controller | WX2800 | | Hardware | Wireless controller | WX3800 | | Hardware | Wireless controller | WGS1800 | | Hardware | Access point | WA6500 | | Hardware | Access point | WA7200 | | Hardware | Access point | WA7300 | | Hardware | Access point | WA7500 | | Hardware | Access point | WA7600 | | Software | H3C Comware | 7.1.064 Release 2617P50 | | Software | H3C Comware | 7.1.064 Release 5817P50 | | Software | H3C Comware | 9.1.061 ESS 1404P50 | To ensure secure usage a set of guidance documents is provided, together with the H3C Wireless Controllers and Access Points. For details, see section 2.5 ' Documentation ' of this report and Table 5 in the [ST]. ## 2.2 Security Policy Security audit Security relevant events are stored on the TOE, and a copy can be sent regularly to an external Syslog server Cryptographic support AES RSA and ECDSA signatures RSA and ECDH key management HMAC keyed hash Key generation for the above algorithms SHA-2 hashing Deterministic Random Bit Generator X509 certificate support Security management Role based access control Identification and authentication Time from a built-in clock or from an external NTP server Protection of the TSF Page: 7/13 of report number: NSCIB-CC-2500009-01-CR, dated 23 October 2025 Secure software updates Self-tests of the software integrity and the cryptographic functionality. Protected key storage Trusted path/channels and secure communication. The TOE uses IPsec to secure the connections to the NTP and to the Syslog server The TOE uses (D)TLS to secure the connection between controller and access point The TOE's controller uses SSH to secure the connection to the external management console ## 2.3 Assumptions and Clarification of Scope ### 2.3.1 Assumptions The assumptions defined in the Security Target are not covered by the TOE itself. These aspects lead to specific Security Objectives to be fulfilled by the TOE-Environment. For detailed information on the security objectives that must be fulfilled by the TOE environment, see section 4.2 of the [ST] . ### 2.3.2 Clarification of scope The evaluated configuration is: 'FIPS mode' on, and no external authentication server. Both manual time setting and NTP synchronisation are evaluated. Manual time setting is a prerequisite for the secure connections as the time is needed for certificate validation. The optional Syslog server is part of the evaluated configuration. ## 2.4 Architectural Information The TOE provides wireless access to a network. The AP (Access Point) is connected to the AC (Access Controller) via an IP wired Ethernet network or wired directly to the AC. The management and control traffic between AP and AC is protected using DTLS and TLS. For its management, the TOE can be accessed via a network (protected with SSH) of locally via a serial connection. ® TrustCB is a registered trademark.

These testing efforts have given the evaluator enough assurance that the TOE behaves as desired. Due to this reason, the approach of the independent tests was as following: The evaluator has conducted 16 witnessing sessions performing a representative coverage of the different TOE subcomponents. The tests were executed on 2 software versions, 9.1.061 ESS 1404P50 and 7.1.064 Release 5817P50. The evaluator has conducted extra tests to confirm that the NTP and the Syslog server can only communicate with the TOE over a secure connection. ### 2.6.2 Independent penetration testing Besides a port scan, the evaluator has tested the SSH interface for command injection and the CLI interface with fuzzing. The total test effort expended by the evaluators was 2.4 weeks. During that test campaign, 0% of the total time was spent on Perturbation attacks, 0% on side-channel testing, and 100% on logical tests. ® TrustCB is a registered trademark.

The developer's tests and the independent functional tests produced the expected results, giving assurance that the TOE behaves as specified in its [ST] and functional specification. No exploitable vulnerabilities were found with the independent penetration tests. The algorithmic security level of cryptographic functionality has not been rated in this certification process, but the current consensus on the algorithmic security level in the open domain, i.e., from the current best cryptanalytic attacks published, has been taken into account. ## 2.7 Reused Evaluation Results There is no reuse of evaluation results in this certification. No sites have been visited as part of this evaluation. ## 2.8 Evaluated Configuration The TOE is defined uniquely by its name and version number H3C Wireless Controllers and Access Points. The user can verify the TOE version with the commands: 'display fips status', 'display version' and 'display wlan ap - model all' . ## 2.9 Evaluation Results The evaluation lab documented their evaluation results in the [ETR] , which references an ASE Intermediate Report and other evaluator documents. The verdict of each claimed assurance requirement is ' Pass '. Based on the above evaluation results the evaluation lab concluded the H3C Wireless Controllers and Access Points, to be CC Part 2 extended, CC Part 3 conformant , and to meet the requirements of EAL 2 augmented with ALC_FLR.2 . This implies that the product satisfies the security requirements specified in Security Target [ST] . ® TrustCB is a registered trademark. Any use or application requires prior approval. Page: 11/13 of report number: NSCIB-CC-2500009-01-CR, dated 23 October 2025 The Security Target claims conformance to the following functional package: Functional Package for SSH Version 1.0 [PPSSH] The Security Target closely follows the Protection Profile [PP] with the WLAN module [EPWLAN] and configuration [PP-CONFIG] , but does not claim conformance to it. ## 2.10 Comments/Recommendations The user guidance as outlined in section 2.5 ' Documentation ' contains necessary information about the usage of the TOE. Certain aspects of the TOE's security functionality, in particular the countermeasures against attacks, depend on accurate conformance to the user guidance of both the software and the hardware part of the TOE. There are no particular obligations or recommendations for the user apart from following the user guidance. Please note that the documents contain relevant details concerning the resistance against certain attacks. In addition, all aspects of assumptions, threats and policies as outlined in the Security Target not covered by the TOE itself must be fulfilled by the operational environment of the TOE. The customer or user of the product shall consider the results of the certification within his system risk management process. For the evolution of attack methods and techniques to be covered, the customer should define the period of time until a re-assessment for the TOE is required and thus requested from the sponsor of the certificate. The strength of the cryptographic algorithms and protocols was not rated in the course of this evaluation. This specifically applies to the following proprietary or non-standard algorithms, protocols and implementations: < none >, which are out of scope as there are no security claims relating to these.
