Connecting Your FortiAP Unit
![](/img.php?id=1945798&img=bg7.png)
Page 4
The FortiAP unit is designed to require no configuration in most
networks. Zero Configuration mode works if the unit is directly
connected to the FortiGate or FortiWiFi performing the Wireless LAN
Controller (WLC) functions, or on the same layer-2 network and subnet
as the FortiGate or FortiWiFi unit.
If the FortiAP wireless controller’s IP address cannot be determined
using Zero Configuration mode, or if the network uses static IP
addresses, it can be configured to use a static IP address.
To enable the FortiAP using Zero Configuration:
1. After connecting the FortiAP unit as described in the previous chapter,
the unit goes through its boot procedure and requests an IP address
from the DHCP server.
2. If the IP address is retrieved successfully, the FortiAP enters discovery
mode to locate a FortiGate or FortiWiFi wireless controller. The
discovery modes are:
• Broadcast
• Multicast
• DHCP option 138
3. Verify that the FortiAP has successfully connected to the controller.
In the FortiGate Web-based Manager, go to WiFi Controller > Managed
Access Points > Managed FortiAP. A successfully discovered unit
displays an orange circle with a question mark.
4. Select the access point and click Edit.
5. In the State field, select Authorize.

6. In the AP Profile field, select Change, then select a profile from the
list and click OK.
The configuration is downloaded from the wireless controller to the
FortiAP and the WiFi LED lights up.
To enable the FortiAP with a static IP address:
1. Connect the FortiAP device to a separate, private switch or hub, or
directly connect it to your management computer via a cross-over
cable.
2. Configure the management computer to be on the same subnet as
the internal interface of the FortiAP unit:
a. Browse to the Network and Sharing Center > Change Adapter
Settings > Local Area Connection Properties > Internet Protocol
Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties.
b. Change the IP address of the management computer to
192.168.1.3 and the netmask to 255.255.255.0.
3. To access the unit’s Web-based Manager, start a browser of your
choice and browse to http://192.168.1.2.
4. Type admin in the Name field, leave the Password field blank, and
select Login.
5. In the Network Configuration section of the System Information tab:
a. Set Address Mode to Static,
b. Enter the FortiAP unit’s IP address in the Local IP Address field,
c. Enter 255.255.255.0 in the Local Network Mask field, and
d. Enter the gateway IP address in the Gateway IP field.
![](/img.php?id=1945798&img=bg9.png)
6. In the WTP Configuration section, set AC Discovery Type to Static
and enter the FortiGate wireless controller’s IP address in the AC IP
Address 1 field.
7. Apply the configuration by selecting Apply.
8. Move the FortiAP to the intended deployment location and connect
the Ethernet cable as described in the Connecting chapter.
9. Log in to the FortiGate controller Web-based Manager, and go to
WiFi Controller > Managed Access Points > Managed FortiAP.
A successfully discovered unit displays an orange circle with a
question mark in the Status column.
10. Select the access point and click Edit.
11. In the State field, select Authorize.
12. In the Edit FortiAP dialog box, select Enable Wireless Radio. Leave
the remaining settings at their default values. The configuration is
downloaded from the FortiGate unit to the FortiAP device.

6. Limited Warranty.
Fortinet provides this limited warranty for its product only to the single end-user person or entity that originally purchased the Product from Fortinet
or its authorized reseller or distributor and paid for such Product. The warranty is only valid for Products which are registered on Fortinet’s Support
Website: https://support.fortinet.com; or on the TalkSwitch support website: http://global.talkswitch.com; or such other website as provided by Fortinet.
For the below software warranty to start, registration must take place within three hundred sixty-ve (365) days from the date the Product was origi-
nally shipped from Fortinet’s facilities or the warranty is null and void and will not be honored. For the hardware warranty, such warranty starts on the
earlier of the date of Product registration on Fortinet’s Support Website or ninety (90) days from the date that the Product was originally shipped from
Fortinet’s facilities. It is the Fortinet distributor’s and reseller’s responsibility to make clear to the end user the date the product was originally shipped
from Fortinet, and it is the end user’s responsibility to understand the original ship date from the party from which the end user purchased the product.
All warranty claims must be submitted in writing to Fortinet before the expiration of the warranty term or such claims are waived in full, i.e. ninety (90)
days from the earlier of registration or the automatically started term for hardware and spare parts claims and three hundred sixty-ve (365) days
from registration within three hundred sixty-ve (365) days from shipment for software claims. Fortinet provides no warranty for any beta, donation or
evaluation Products, for any spare parts not purchased directly from Fortinet by the end-user, for any accessories, or for any stand-alone software.
Fortinet warrants that the hardware portion of the Products, including spare parts unless noted otherwise (“Hardware”) will be free from material
defects in workmanship as compared to the functional specications for the period set forth as follows and applicable to the Product type (“Hardware
Warranty Period”): a three hundred sixty-ve (365) day limited warranty for the Hardware excluding spare parts, and, for spare parts, solely a ninety
(90) days limited warranty. Fortinet’s sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the defective Hardware at no charge to the original owner. This
obligation is exclusive of transport fees, labor or installation costs, and any other cost which are not directly associated to the Product. Such repair or
replacement will be rendered by Fortinet at an authorized Fortinet service facility as determined by Fortinet. The replacement Hardware need not be
new or of an identical make, model, or part; Fortinet may, in its discretion, replace the defective Hardware (or any part thereof) with any reconditioned
Product that Fortinet reasonably determines is substantially equivalent (or superior) in all material respects to the defective Hardware. The Hardware
Warranty Period for the repaired or replacement Hardware shall be for the greater of the remaining Hardware Warranty Period or ninety days from the
delivery of the repaired or replacement Hardware. If Fortinet determines in its reasonable discretion that a material defect is incapable of correction or
that it is not practical to repair or replace defective Hardware, the price paid by the original purchaser for the defective Hardware will be refunded by
Fortinet upon return to Fortinet of the defective Hardware. All Hardware (or part thereof) that is replaced by Fortinet, or for which the purchase price is
refunded, shall become the property of Fortinet upon replacement or refund.
Fortinet warrants that the software portion of Hardware Products will substantially conform to Fortinet’s then current functional specications for the
Software, as set forth in the applicable documentation for a period of ninety (90) days (“Software Warranty Period”), if the Software is properly installed
on approved Hardware and operated as contemplated in its documentation. Fortinet’s sole obligation shall be to repair or replace the non-conforming
Software with software that substantially conforms to Fortinet’s functional specications. Except as otherwise agreed by Fortinet in writing, the
replacement Software is provided only to the original licensee, and is subject to the terms and conditions of the license granted by Fortinet for the Soft-
ware. The Software Warranty Period shall extend for an additional ninety (90) days after any replacement software is delivered. If Fortinet determines in
its reasonable discretion that a material non-conformance is incapable of correction or that it is not practical to repair or replace the non-conforming
Software, the price paid by the original licensee for the non-conforming Software will be refunded by Fortinet; provided that the non-conforming
Software (and all copies thereof) is rst returned to Fortinet. The license granted respecting any Software for which a refund is given automatically
terminates immediately upon refund. For purpose of the above hardware and software warranties, the term “functional specications” means solely
those specications authorized and published by Fortinet that expressly state in such specications that they are the functional specications referred
to in this section 6 of this Agreement, and, in the event no such specications are provided to you with the Software or Hardware, there shall be no
warranty on such Software.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
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 Pro-
gram 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 modications
and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modication”.) Each licensee is addressed
as “you”.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modication 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.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such
modications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
Page 17
a) You must cause the modied les to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the les and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be
licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modied program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the
most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else,
saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of
this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not
required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modied work as a whole. If identiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reason-
ably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute
them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the
whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regard-
less of who wrote it.. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is
to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another work
not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the
other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1
and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of Sections1 and 2
above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing
source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above
on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for non-
commercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)
Source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all
the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface denition les, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation
of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source
or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable. If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering
equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled
to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy,
modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties who have
received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the
Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor
to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’ exercise
of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are
imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the condi-
tions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obligations,
then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the
section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this
section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices.
Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of
that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose
that choice.
Page 18
Page 19
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright
holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribu-
tion is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this
License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be
similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing version
number. If the Program species a version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the
terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version
number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for
permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make excep-
tions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the
sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY AP-
PLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM “AS IS”
WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANT-
ABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU.
SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL,
INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF
DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH
ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other authorized
party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called “this License”). Each licensee is addressed as
“you”.
A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs (which use some
of those functions and data) to form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the Library” means
either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with mod-
ications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term “modication”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modications to it. For a library, complete source code means all the
source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface denition les, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modication are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running a program
using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Library (independent
of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what the program that uses the Library
does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicu-
ously 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 distribute a copy of this License along with the Library. 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.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute such
modications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modied work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the les modied to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the les and the date of any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
Page 20
d) If a facility in the modied Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility, other than as
an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not supply
such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
These requirements apply to the modied work as a whole. If identiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and can be reasonably
considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you distribute them
as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Library, the distribution of the whole
must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of
who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise
the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on
the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under
the scope of this License.
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do this, you
must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2 instead of to this License.
(If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can specify that version instead if you wish.) Do
not make any other change in these notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all subsequent copies
and derivative works made from that copy. This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library into a program that is not a
library.
4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sec-
tions 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under
the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from
the same place satises the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the
object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked with it, is
called a “work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this
License.
However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it contains portions
of the Library), rather than a “work that uses the library”. The executable is therefore covered by this License. Section 6 states terms for distribution
of such executables.
When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header le that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a derivative work
of the Library even though the source code is not.
Whether this is true is especially signicant if the work can be linked without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be
true is not precisely dened by law.
If such an object le uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions (ten lines or
less in length), then the use of the object le is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables containing this object
code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.) Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code
for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with
the Library itself.
6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a “work that uses the Library” with the Library to produce a work containing
portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modication of the work for your own use
and reverse engineering for debugging such modications. You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it
and that the Library and its use are covered by this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright
notices, you must include the copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License. Also,
you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever changes were used
in the work (which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete
machine-readable “work that uses the Library”, as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then relink to produce
a modied executable containing the modied Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of denitions les in the Library will
not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modied denitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy of the library
already present on the user’s computer system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will operate properly with a modied
version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modied version is interface-compatible with the version that the work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials specied in Subsection 6a, above, for a
charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution.
Page 21
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above specied materials
from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library” must include any data and utility programs needed for reproducing the execut-
able from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or
binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable. It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not
normally accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you
distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not covered
by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library and of the other library
facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities. This must be
distributed under the terms of the Sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to nd the accompa-
nying uncombined form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to
copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However, parties
who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compli-
ance.
9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the
Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Library
(or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or
modifying the Library or works based on it.
10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor
to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients’
exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties with this License.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions
are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the
conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License and any other pertinent obliga-
tions, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of
the Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to
refrain entirely from distribution of the Library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the
section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this

12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright
holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution
is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this
License.
13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such new versions
will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. Each version is given a distinguishing ver-
sion number. If the Library species a version number of this License which applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following the
terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license
version number, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.
14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write to the
author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we some-
times make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of
promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
15. The warranty disclaimer contained in Sections 11 and 12 of the preceding GPL License is incorporated herein.
