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 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 appro-
priate 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 modifications or work under the terms
of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these
conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files 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 modified 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 modified work as a whole.
If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and
OR EXPRESS WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, OR
WARRANTY FOR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND
NON-INFRINGEMENT. IF ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY CANNOT
BE DISCLAIMED IN ANY TERRITORY WHERE A PRODUCT IS
SOLD, THE DURATION OF SUCH IMPLIED WARRANTY SHALL
BE LIMITED TO NINETY (90) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF ORIG-
INAL SHIPMENT FROM FORTINET. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY
COVERED UNDER THE LIMITED WARRANTY PROVIDED
HEREIN, THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY, SELECTION
AND PERFORMANCE OF THE PRODUCT IS WITH THE PUR-
CHASER OF THE PRODUCT. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING
TO THE CONTRARY, THE HARDWARE WARRANTY PERIOD
DISCUSSED ABOVE DOES NOT APPLY TO CERTAIN FORTINET
PRODUCTS, INCLUDING FORTIFONE WHICH HAS A NINETY
(90) DAY LIMITED WARRANTY AND FORTITOKEN WHICH HAS
A 365 DAY WARRANTY FROM THE DATE OF SHIPMENT FROM
FORTINET’S FACILITIES, AND THE SOFTWARE WARRANTY
DOES NOT APPLY TO CERTAIN FORTINET PRODUCTS,
INCLUDING FORTIGATE-ONE AND VDOM SOFTWARE. YOU
HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT NO VENDOR
CAN ASSURE COMPLETE SECURITY AND NOTHING HEREIN
OR ELSEWHERE SHALL BE DEEMED TO IMPLY A SECURITY
GUARANTEE OR ASSURANCE.
The warranty in Section 6 above does not apply if the Software,
Product or any other equipment upon which the Software is au-
thorized to be used (a) has been altered, except by Fortinet or its
authorized representative, (b) has not been installed, operated, re-
paired, updated to the latest version, or maintained in accordance
with instructions supplied by Fortinet, (c) has been subjected to
abnormal physical or electrical stress, misuse, negligence, or
accident; (d) is licensed for beta, evaluation, donation, testing or
demonstration purposes or for which Fortinet does not charge
a purchase price or license fee. In the case of beta, testing,
evaluation, donation or free Software or Product, the end user
acknowledges and agrees that such Software or Product may
contain bugs or errors and could cause system failures, data loss
and other issues, and the end user agrees that such Software or
Product is provided “as-is” without any warranty whatsoever, and
Fortinet disclaims any warranty or liability whatsoever. An end
user’s use of evaluation or beta Software or Product is limited to
thirty (30) days from original shipment unless otherwise agreed in
writing by Fortinet.
8. Governing Law.
Any disputes arising out of this Agreement or Fortinet’s limited
warranty shall be governed by the laws of the state of California,
without regard to the conflict of laws principles. In the event of
any disputes arising out of this Agreement or Fortinet’s limited
warranty, the parties submit to the jurisdiction of the federal
and state courts located in Santa Clara County, California, as
applicable.
9. Limitation of Liability.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW AND NOT-
WITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY, FORTINET
IS NOT LIABLE UNDER ANY CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE,
TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, INFRINGEMENT OR OTHER LEGAL

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 modifications and/or translat-
ed straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, transla-
tion is included without limitation in the term “modification”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work
for making modifications to it. For a library, complete source
code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus
any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to
control compilation and installation of the library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification 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 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 distribute a copy of this License along with
the Library. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transfer-
ring 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 por-
tion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and
distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section
1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices
stating that you changed the files 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.
d) If a facility in the modified 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 modified work as a whole. If
identifiable 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 Sections 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 satisfies the requirement
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 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 collec-
tive 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-read-
able 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 noncommercial 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 modifications to it. For an executable work, complete
source code means all the source code for all modules it con-
tains, plus any associated interface definition files, 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, ker-
nel, 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 conditions 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 imple-
mented 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.
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 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.
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
specifies 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 exceptions for this. Our deci-
sion 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.
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

in other circumstances.

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 version number.
If the Library specifies a version number of this License which
applies to it and “any later version”, you have the option of follow-
ing 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 sometimes make exceptions
for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserv-
ing 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.
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 Li-
brary, 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
file 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 significant 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 defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data struc-
ture layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline
functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object
file 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
modification of the work for your own use and reverse engineer-
ing for debugging such modifications. 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 modified
executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood
that the user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to
use the modified definitions.)
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 sys-
tem, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and
(2) will operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the
user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-com-
patible 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 specified in Subsection
6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing
this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy
from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the
above specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materi-
als 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 executable 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 com-
bined 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
find the accompanying 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 distrib-
ute 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 compliance.
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
obligations, 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
