3PCC: 3rd Party Call Control, PS: Presence Server
Upon detecting an intruder, the system instantly finds the current location of the authorized watcher (e.g. home owner) and establishes a video connection. Features: Secured communication: m2m-x security Strict Authorization: No third party eavesdropping Application Integration: Uses SIP 3PCC for connection establishment Other Applications: Office-building, Industry, Campus, Home security, Emergency Services, Remote Health Care

Virtual Private Server (VPS) Web Hosting
• VPSv2 is dual stack and supports IPv6! • What is a Virtual Private Server? fully managed hosting environment customers get their own UNIX virtual machine much more than a web hosting platform • Managed Private Servers also available. MPSv2 supports IPv6 similar to VPS, but dedicated
“VPS technology partitions a single dedicated server into multiple ‘virtual private servers’ that provide customers with the benefits of dedicated power and flexibility at a reduced cost.” - Ken Jensen Product Manager

VPSv2 Tools
• Much more than a web hosting platform. • IPv6 support for: Apache, including SSL sendmail POP IMAP SSH FTP ping6 traceroute6 • User has root - can write Perl scripts, set up cron, modify config files, etc. • This box is an IPv6 playground!

VPSv2 – Dual Stack Platform
• Currently available from Tokyo datacenter. • US roll out coming soon. • Also available to resellers. • VPSv2 cost is very reasonable. (under $150/month) • For more information: http://verio.com/ipv6service email: ipv6_VPS_MPS@verio.net
