Very minor issue: People often refer informally to "FIPS mode" rather
than the more cumbersome FIPS 140 or FIPS 140-2. Unless you expect other
FIPS standards to apply to the crypto framework, maybe you could save
users a little typing:
cryptoadm list fips
cryptoadm enable fips
cryptoadm disable fips
I don't feel strongly about this; just a suggestion.
