Cisco's Statement about IPR Claimed in draft-sajassi-l2vpn-pbb-vpls-cmac-flush-00.txt
Date: 5 August 2008
From: Rachel Albright

Cisco is the owner of US Patent Application Serial No. 11/948,405 relating to the
subject matter of "Customer MAC Address Flushing Mechanisms for Provider Backbone
Bridging over VPLS" .

If technology in this document is included in a standard adopted by IETF and any
claims of any Cisco patents are necessary for practicing the standard, any party
will have the right to use any such patent claims under reasonable, non-discriminatory
terms, with reciprocity, to implement and fully comply with the standard.

The reasonable non-discriminatory terms are:

If this standard is adopted, Cisco will not assert any patents owned or controlled
by Cisco against any party for making, using, selling, importing or offering for
sale a product that implements the standard, provided, however that Cisco retains
the right to assert its patents (including the right to claim past royalties)
against any party that asserts a patent it owns or controls (either directly or
indirectly) against Cisco or any of Cisco's affiliates or successors in title or
against any products of Cisco or any products of any of Cisco's affiliates either
alone or in combination with other products; and Cisco retains the right to assert
its patents against any product or portion thereof that is not necessary for
compliance with the standard.

Royalty-bearing licenses will be available to anyone who prefers that option.
