JR is right. We have such an implementation that we developed in '00 and have been running on embdded and pc architecture systems. Until we were able to control resource allocation took a lot of testing about 2 years. Some of our systems even had the access part on them as well and in many instances we had hardware acceleration for VPN and NAT and still was tricky.
