Press Release Summary: Participating network operators will get a complete picture
of the application usage in their networks including P2P file sharing, media
streaming, VoIP, Web browsing and many more

Press Release Body: Leipzig, Germany, July 04, 2008 -- ipoque, provider of
professional solutions for Internet traffic management and analysis, will shortly
start to conduct a new Internet study and is still looking for participating network
operators to broaden the scope of the analysis. As in the past two studies of 2006
and 2007, all traffic will be classified by application using ipoque\'s proven deep
packet inspection engine. For the applications with the highest data volume such as
peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing, the analysis will also take into account the
content being transferred.

ipoque\'s Internet Study 2007 has revealed unparalleled information about application
usage and popular Internet content in five regions of the world. More than three
petabytes of traffic representing over one million subscribers were analyzed. The
results for the different regions varied considerably. P2P produced, on average,
between 49 and 83 percent of all Internet traffic with nighttime peaks of over 95
percent. About 20 percent of P2P traffic was encrypted - a value expected to have
increased significantly since. Skype was by far the most popular Internet telephony
service - a result most likely to hold this year. The Internet Study 2007 will be
available as a free download immediately from ipoque\'s homepage.

Options for Participation and Benefits

Most of the Internet service providers who participated last year will again take
part in this large-scale study. For an even larger scope, ipoque is looking for
additional network operators. All they will have to do is install a PRX Traffic
Manager, ipoque\'s DPI bandwidth management system, either inline or passively using
mirror or tap ports, in their networks.
Participants will get a significant discount on the purchase of all PRX Traffic
Managers used for the study plus a complementary three-year bronze support package.
A limited number of systems is available on loan for the duration of the
measurements.
