<p>
This page provides a mechanism for filing disclosures about intellectual
property rights (IPR) and for finding out what IPR disclosures have been
filed. The IETF intellectual property rights rules are defined in RFC
8179, <a href="https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc8179.txt">"Intellectual
Property Rights in IETF Technology"</a>.
</p>
<p>
The IETF takes no position regarding the validity or scope of any
intellectual property rights or other rights that might be claimed to
pertain to the implementation or use of the technology described in any
IETF documents or the extent to which any license under such rights might
or might not be available; nor does it represent that it has made any
independent effort to identify any such rights.
</p>
<p>
The material posted as IPR disclosures should be viewed as originating
from the source of that information, and any issue or question related to
the material should be directed to the source rather than the IETF. There
is no implied endorsement or agreement by the IETF, the IESG or any other
IETF entities with any of the material.
