The U.S. International Trade Commission reviewed an investigation concerning certain networking equipment supporting NETCONF and determined that there was no infringement of asserted U.S. patents, leading to no violation of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930. This decision affirmed an initial ruling, known as Order No. 19, and led to the termination of the investigation. Additionally, the Commission granted a third party, Xenogenic Development, LLC, limited rights to intervene to discuss the ownership of the patents, although this did not change the outcome. The investigation's termination is based on the finding of no infringement.
Simple Explanation
The U.S. International Trade Commission decided that certain network gadgets didn't copy someone else's invention, so they canceled the investigation. They also let a company talk a little bit about who really owns the inventions, but it didn't change anything in the end.
