Press Release Summary = Eyeball Networks releases Any-FirewallT Server which enables
seamless traversal of VoIP calls through firewalls, Network Address Translation
devices (NATs), and web proxies.

Press Release Body = Vancouver, BC (Aug 1, 2006) - Eyeball Networks, a leader in
VoIP and presence software, today announced the release of its Any-FirewallT Server
which enables seamless traversal of VoIP calls through firewalls, Network Address
Translation devices (NATs), 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-FirewallT Server solves this issue for
VoIP service providers by enabling 100% call completion across firewalls and
proxies.

"Eyeball Any-FirewallT 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-FirewallT Technology, it provides a seamless, secure,
and scalable call completion solution for VoIP calls through firewalls, NATs and web
proxies.\"

Eyeball Any-FirewallT 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 (IMS). This server uses a modular and cluster-able
design to support carrier-grade VoIP services.

Peer-to-Peer Scalability
Eyeball Any-FirewallT 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-FirewallT Server is designed for virtually any service provider. The
Any-Firewall ServerT is available for order today.
