=== Initialization of Authentication Mechanism ===


The operator (implicitly) assumes the Crypto Officer role when installing the NSS cryptographic module library files. Once the NSS cryptographic module library files are installed on the system, the Crypto Officer calls the function <code>FC_InitPIN</code> to set the NSS User's initial password. From then on, the operator only assumes the NSS User role.
The operator (implicitly) assumes the Crypto Officer role when installing the NSS cryptographic module library files. Once the NSS cryptographic module library files are installed on the system, the Crypto Officer calls the function <code>FC_InitPIN</code> to set the initial password for both the NSS User and Crypto Officer roles.
<div class=note>It is not necessary to call <code>FC_InitToken</code> to initialize the NSS cryptographic module. The NSS cryptographic module is initialized automatically when <code>FC_Initialize</code> is called for the first time. The Crypto Officer may call <code>FC_InitToken</code> to re-initialize the NSS cryptographic module.</div>
