Eyeball Networks Releases Proxy, Firewall and NAT Traversal Solution for VoIP Services and Devices
August 19th, 2006 - Posted in Other, VoIPEyeball Networks today announced the release of its Any-Firewallâ„¢ Server which enables seamless traversal of VoIP calls through firewalls, Network Address Translation devices, and web proxies.
One of the biggest obstacles of widespread VoIP adoption is the inability of data packets to traverse firewalls and connect participants using different firewall products and configurations. Eyeball’s Any-Firewall™ Server solves this issue for VoIP service providers by enabling 100% call completion across firewalls and proxies.
“Eyeball Any-Firewallâ„¢ Server is based on proven, carrier-accepted technology and is designed to address the NAT/firewall traversal needs of service provider networks, while leveraging existing SIP infrastructure.” said Chris Piche, CEO of Eyeball Networks. “By combining IETF standards and drafts, including STUN, TURN and ICE, with Eyeball’s patented Any-Firewallâ„¢ Technology, it provides a seamless, secure, and scalable call completion solution for VoIP calls through firewalls, NATs and web proxies.”
Eyeball Any-Firewallâ„¢ Server interoperates with SIP Proxies and soft-switches, and is designed to be a key component in next-generation communications services based on Internet Multimedia Subsystem. This server uses a modular and cluster-able design to support carrier-grade VoIP services.
Peer-to-Peer Scalability
Eyeball Any-Firewallâ„¢ Server combined with Eyeball Messenger SDK completes most calls using peer-to-peer media transport between endpoints with occasional fallback to a relay service when peer-to-peer transport is not possible. This has two key benefits: (1) Service growth to millions of users with minimal infrastructure and bandwidth cost, and (2) Guaranteed minimum end-to-end latency for voice and video calls, maximizing service quality and customer satisfaction.
Availability
Eyeball Any-Firewallâ„¢ Server is designed for virtually any service provider. The Any-Firewall Serverâ„¢ is available for order today.
