Open Source and Third Party Licenses
Schedule 2-A
If this Cisco product contains open source software
licensed under Version 2 of the “GNU General Public
License” then the license terms below in this Schedule 2-A
will apply to that open source software . The license terms
below in this Schedule 2-A are from the public web site at

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc .
51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301, USA
Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim
copies of this license document, but changing it is not
allowed .
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away
your freedom to share and change it . By contrast, the
GNU General Public License is intended to guarantee your
freedom to share and change free software--to make sure
the software is free for all its users . This General Public
License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s
software and to any other program whose authors
commit to using it . (Some other Free Software Foundation
software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public
License instead .) You can apply it to your programs, too .
When we speak of free software, we are referring to
freedom, not price . Our General Public Licenses are
designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this
service if you wish), that you receive source code or can
get it if you want it, that you can change the software or
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know
you can do these things .
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that
forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to
surrender the rights . These restrictions translate to certain
responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the
software, or if you modify it .
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program,
whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients
all the rights that you have . You must make sure that they,
too, receive or can get the source code . And you must
show them these terms so they know their rights .
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the
software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you
legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the
software .
Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to
make certain that everyone understands that there is no
warranty for this free software . If the software is modified
by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients
to know that what they have is not the original, so that
any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the
original authors’ reputations .
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by
software patents . We wish to avoid the danger that
redistributors of a free program will individually obtain
patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary .
To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent
must be licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed
at all .
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution
and modification follow .
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING,
DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0 . This License applies to any program or other work
which contains a notice placed by the copyright
holder saying it may be distributed under the terms
of this General Public License . The “Program”, below,
refers to any such program or work, and a “work based
on the Program” means either the Program or any
derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a
work containing the Program or a portion of it, either
verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into
another language . (Hereinafter, translation is included
without limitation in the term “modification” .) Each
licensee is addressed as “you” .
Activities other than copying, distribution and
modification are not covered by this License; they
are outside its scope . The act of running the Program
is not restricted, and the output from the Program is
covered only if its contents constitute a work based on
the Program (independent of having been made by
running the Program) . Whether that is true depends
on what the Program does .
1 . You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the
Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium,
provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice
and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices
that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program
a copy of this License along with the Program .
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring
a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty
protection in exchange for a fee .
