The following footnote is on page 23 of the
OpenSSL FIPS 140-2 User Guide (http://www.openssl.org/docs/fips/UserGuide-1.1.1.pdf) September 27, 2007 The OPENSSL_FIPS=1 environment variable will enable FIPS mode for an openssl command built from a FIPS capable OpenSSL distribution.

The question is that is it possible to have the openssl command line tool (generated from openssl-fips-1.1.1 ) be in FIPS mode ? If yes, please can someone shed some light on this ? Thank you.
