First standards-based firewall and NAT traversal SDK for VoIP calls

Released on = October 11, 2006, 10:03 am

Press Release Author = Eyeball Networks

Industry = Telecommunications

Press Release Summary = Patented technology delivers guaranteed call completion and
scalability using STUN, TURN & ICE

Press Release Body = VANCOUVER, B.C. (Oct 11, 2006) – Eyeball Networks Inc., a
pioneer and world leader in VoIP, video telephony, and instant messaging software,
today announced Eyeball Any-Firewall™ Engine, a comprehensive, standards-based NAT
traversal Software Development Kit (SDK) for guaranteed VoIP call completion across
NATs, firewalls, and Web proxies. VoIP service providers, application developers,
and device makers can now deliver instant, seamless, and guaranteed connections
between subscribers while benefiting from peer-to-peer (P2P) media delivery, low
latency, and carrier-grade scalability.

“Our Any-Firewall Engine addresses the critical demand for a scalable NAT and
firewall traversal solution, a major catalyst for continued VoIP adoption,” stated
Chris Piche, Chief Executive Officer, Eyeball Networks. “Today, Skype is the largest
VoIP service with a proprietary NAT traversal solution and now with Eyeball
Any-Firewall Engine, service providers’ benefit from a standards-based solution with
guaranteed call completion.”

Eyeball’s patented Any-Firewall™ Technology - the foundation of the Any-Firewall
Engine - combines IETF standards STUN, TURN, and ICE, with Eyeball’s own innovations
enabling P2P media transport, marking the first solution of its kind in the
industry. This unique approach addresses the shortcomings of today’s traversal
alternatives including cost-prohibitive Session Border Controller (SBC)
implementations which enhance call completion but do not guarantee it. The
Any-Firewall Engine provides a flexible, multi-platform NAT traversal library - with
a small footprint - and is independent of signaling protocol and media delivery.
This allows it to be used with third-party components including SIP, JINGLE, and RTP
stacks and voice/video engines. Today, leading VoIP service providers and device
makers including True Internet and Fuji Photo Film have successfully leveraged this
technology.

Eyeball Any-Firewall Engine will be released in the fourth quarter of 2006 and will
be available for many PC and embedded platforms including Windows 2000, XP & Vista,
Windows Mobile, Linux and embedded Linux. Any-Firewall Engine will include a library
of software components, sample applications with source code, and user and reference
documentation.

Additional information can be found online at www.eyeball.com/pr. Eyeball will be
exhibiting and speaking at the Internet Telephony Expo October 10th-13th in San
Diego, CA. booth #824.
