I believe someone came up with a combo Asterisk PBX with Router/VPN/Firewall image a couple of years ago. Don't ask me to point it out, it's lost in the ether I think. I didn't hear any specifics about commercial installs and how well the system performed in real world. My biggest concern is resource contention on the platform, what happens when the router/vpn/firewall has 8 vpn connections, natting 60 sessions and applying QOS to the outbound RTP stream for 10 calls whilst the PBX is recording calls, playing a couple of auto attendant loops and hosting a 6 person conference bridge?
