The Free Software Foundation filed a lawsuit against Cisco Systems on Thursday, alleging the networking giant is in violation of numerous open source licenses. The suit was filed in the U.S. District Court of Manhattan by the Boston-based nonprofit open source software group. The FSF claims that several Cisco products violate the terms of the GNU Public License and GNU Lesser Public License. GNU is an industry term that stands for "GNU's Not Unix."
