See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_ssl.html#sslfips for using the OpenSSL fipscontainer with apache.

My questions are: 1) How to make Apache server enable the FIPS mode on OpenSSL? My understanding is, for each application which need use OpenSSL FIPS mode, the application need to invoke the FIPS_mode_set () API. In that case how do we make Apache to invoke this API? Is that a configuration changes or does it require to rebuild Apache server? 2) If Apache is enabled with FIPS module, does it mean all the Apache processes (when invoking crypto functions from OpenSSL) will be operating with the OpenSSL FIPS mode? Thanks.
