24). In its Response, D-Link Systems represented that “Defendants do not oppose 

service of the complaint upon Mr. Massari or Ms. Hurtado, on behalf of D-Link Corp.,

3. On January 31, 2017, following the filing of D-Link Systems’ Response, Plaintiff

waive service of the Complaint on D-Link Corporation under Rule 4(d)(1), and included 

documents sufficient to comply with this Rule, as well as a pre-paid means for returning 

the waiver form appended to Rule 4.
