`1. PRELIMINARY CLAIM CONSTRUCTIONS AND IDENTIFICATION OF
`INTRINSIC SUPPORT
`
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-2, Defendants Ruckus Wireless, Inc., NETGEAR, Inc.,
`
`Juniper Networks, Inc., and Fortinet, Inc. (collectively, the “Defendants”), hereby provide their
`
`preliminary claim constructions with respect to the asserted claims 31, 35, 36, 40, 43, 52, 56, 59,
`
`60, and 65 of U.S. Patent No. 8,155,012 (the “‘012 Patent”); claims 1, 31, 37, 59, 69, 72, 73, 106,
`
`112, 134, 142, and 145 of U.S. Patent No. 8,902,760 (the “‘760 Patent”); claims 1, 5, 31, 43, 70,
`
`72, 75, 83, 103, 104, 111, 123, and 125 of U.S. Patent No. 8,942,107 (the “‘107 Patent”); and 1, 2,
`
`7, 26, 29, 38, 40, 47, 55, and 69 of U.S. Patent No. 9,019,838 (the “‘838 Patent”) (collectively, the
`
`“Asserted Claims”) and intrinsic support for those constructions.
`
`Defendants’ proposed terms and claim elements for construction are limited to the patent
`
`claims identified in Plaintiffs ChriMar Systems, Inc. d/b/a CMS Technologies and ChriMar
`
`Holding Company, LLC (“Plaintiffs”) Patent Local Rule 3-1 and 3-2 Disclosures. Defendants’
`
`proposed constructions are based upon information currently available to Defendants. One or
`
`more of these claim terms and phrases are indefinite and otherwise improper under 35 U.S.C.
`
`§ 112(2), and Defendants reserve all rights to assert those defects as to each such claim term or
`
`phrase. Additionally, as discovery progresses, Plaintiffs produce documents that have or will be
`
`requested, and additional information becomes available, Defendants reserve the right to amend
`
`their proposed constructions following their meet and confer with Plaintiffs in preparation for

`
`positions, and/or information in this disclosure to take into account additional information that
`
`comes to light, including without limitation as additional contentions are made, facts are
`
`ascertained, analyses are made, and proposed constructions are provided by Plaintiffs.
`
`Subject to the above limitations and reservations of rights, Defendants submit the

`
`As for the remaining terms and phrases identified by Defendants in their Patent Local Rule
`

`
`Court’s construction at this time.
`2. PRELIMINARY IDENTIFICATION OF EXTRINSIC EVIDENCE
`Pursuant to Patent Local Rule 4-2 and the Court’s Civil Minutes Order, Dkt. No. 68,
`
`Defendants provide below a preliminary identification of extrinsic support for their claim
`
`construction positions, including with respect to confirming the plain and ordinary meaning of the
`
`terms identified in their Patent Local Rule 4-1 disclosures (to the extent that Plaintiffs construes
`
`those terms contrary to their plain and ordinary meaning as would be understood by one of
`
`ordinary skill in the art): CMS-4-2_00000001 - CMS-4-2_00008343. Defendants also expressly
`
`reserve the right to rely on any extrinsic evidence that Plaintiffs rely upon and/or to supplement
`
`this disclosure if Plaintiffs propose a construction or applies a different meaning of the terms than
`
`the plain and ordinary meaning.
`
`Defendants may also rely upon the testimony, statements, and/or deposition exhibits of the
`listed inventors and/or prosecuting attorneys of the Patents-in-Suit1 for claim construction
`purposes. In summary, such testimony could include an explanation of the meaning of the claim
`
`terms in the context of the subject matter of the Patents-in-Suit, a description of the state of the
`
`technology relating to the claimed invention at the time the applications for the Patents-in-Suit
`
`were filed, a description of the qualifications of a person of ordinary skill in the art at the time the

`
`submitted by Plaintiffs.

`Finally, Defendants may rely upon declarations of other prior artists identified in
`
`Defendants’ Patent Local Rule 3-3 disclosures. Such declarations relate to the understanding of
