Re: [bess] IPR Disclosure Juniper's Statement about IPR related to draft-ietf-bess-evpn-irb-mcast

As amusing as it is to confer the forwarding of inter-subnet multicast with the processing of egg yolks,
I suspect the disclosure should have referred to US14675202 and not US4675202

Hi all,

I have looked up the IPR Disclosure Statement (pure curiosity) and it looks a bit strange to me.

In particular, a search for the US Patent  4675202 yields a patent for egg yolk processing<https://patents.google.com/patent/US4675202> that is owned by NESTEC (with priority from 1984).

At the same time, a search<http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=0&f=S&l=50&TERM1=EVPN+INTER-SUBNET+MULTICAST+FORWARDING&FIELD1=&co1=AND&TERM2=&FIELD2=&d=PTXT> for “EVPN INTER-SUBNET MULTICAST FORWARDING” in the US Patent Office database did not yield any results at all.

My 2c,

Sasha
