Received November 12, 2002 From: "Dawna Hoerle (LCA)" Re: Protected EAP Protocol (PEAP) Microsoft's PEAP version 0 Implementation in Windows XP SP1 This is to advise the IETF that Microsoft believes it may have patent rights (patent(s) and/or pending application(s)) that relate to the technologies discussed in the above-referenced internet-drafts. Microsoft is willing to negotiate licenses with interested parties to such patent rights as follows: If Microsoft patent rights are essential to implement the IETF PEAP standard, Microsoft is prepared to grant a non-sublicenseable license to the necessary claims of Microsoft patent rights, to the extent that such claims are required to implement the IETF PEAP standard, on a royalty-free basis with other reasonable and non-discriminatory terms and conditions, provided a reciprocal license is granted to Microsoft for any patent claims necessary to implement the IETF PEAP standard.
