Cisco was a lawsuit initiated by the Free Software Foundation against Cisco Systems on December 11, 2008 in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

Most of these programs are licensed under the GNU General Public License, and a few are under the GNU Lesser General Public License.

The foundation asked the court to enjoin Cisco from further distributing Linksys firmware that contains FSF copyrighted code, and also asked for all profits that Cisco received "from its unlawful acts." Cisco stated that they are reviewing the issues in the suit, but they believe to be "substantially in compliance".The FSF contended that code it held the copyright to was found in the Linksys models EFG120, EFG250, NAS200, SPA400, WAG300N, WAP4400N, WIP300, WMA11B, WRT54GL, WRV200, WRV54G, and WVC54GC, and in the program QuickVPN, which is used to connect VPN clients via the RV and WRV series Linksys routers.On May 20, 2009 the parties announced a settlement which includes Cisco appointing a director to ensure Linksys products comply with free software licenses, and Cisco making an undisclosed financial contribution to the FSF."@en }
