i have never used ipcop in conjunction with asterisk (just starting
asterisk) but i have used ipcop quite a bit. ipcop is a GREAT
alternative to appliance firewalls and does almost anything i have ever
needed to do. it is easy to install and easy to maintain and just
works. the hardest thing is the way they name their interfaces and it
isnt all that hard.
red is the internet port
green is the local lan port
orange (if you have one) is the DMZ
blue (if you have one) is for wireless
typically you just need to worry about red and green
i set up a series of vpn links based on some cheap celeron 1.7s with
256megs of ram and i could saturate a 100MBit connection without the ip
cop machine breaking a sweat (this was during testing, would have went
with much lower powered machines except for the great deal the company i
worked for had for those boxes.)
i would try it and see personally, find a box you are willing to use for
an ipcop test and go to it.

We are looking for a good firewall replacement which will basically do

Our current solution just plain stinks..
We basically need to handle the traffic of a few web servers, mail
server and asterisk box. The most traffic this device will need to
handle is what can be shoved through a T1.
I don't mind buying an appliance to get something solid but IP Cop just
looks better than he appliances I see out there.
I am only concerned if it is stable for a production environment. It
says it's designed for a SOHO environment, we are doing a bit more than
that.
Will this thing hold up? Can it be trusted?
Anyone using this for QOS and Asterisk in a production setup.
Any thoughts or suggestions or warnings would be appreciated!
Thanks!
