This is to advise the IETF that EMC Corporation has U.S. Patent
Number 5,996,024 (the "024 patent") that may relate to the protocols
described in the Internet Draft document(s) "draft-ietf-ips-iscsi-02.txt"
(iSCSI) and/or "draft-ietf-ips-fcovertcpip-01.txt" (FCIP).

To the extent that the protocols discussed in these Internet Drafts
become IETF standard(s) and the '024 patent is necessary for implementation
of the IETF standard(s), EMC will provide, upon written request, to
implementers of the IETF standard(s), a non-exclusive license under
reasonable and non-discriminatory terms, provided a similarly situated
reciprocal license is granted to EMC and other parties by the license
applicant for any protocol technologies necessary for implementation of the
IETF standard(s).

Any questions or issues regarding this communication should be
directed to:
