Be careful, be _very careful_!

The registration process also  requires  you  to  accept  the  "INTEL
SOFTWARE  LICENSE  AGREEMENT  for  the Intel IXP425 Network Processor
Intel IXP400 Software" which includes this part:

    You shall not take any steps which cause the Software, as
    delivered hereunder, to be subject to the terms and
    conditions of the Free Software Foundation's General Public
    License (GPL) or Lesser General Public License (LGPL), by
    incorporation (other than limited header files) of the GPL or
    LGPL code, or by static link or other linking or other method
    which subjects any portion of the Software to the terms and
    conditions of the GPL or LGPL, or other open source license
    restrictions, in the absence of prior written approval by an
    authorized representative for Intel.


Best regards,
