Chuck,
I have a client in a similar situation - I'm using pfSense running on a
single board computer (PCEngines Alix) using OpenVPN at the remote
location to connect them back to the main location where the Asterisk
system (and main pfSense system) is running. Using Aastra phones over
the VPN, so no need for built in VPN support.
The 1.2.3 version on pfSense is well supported on these, and OpenVPN
will connect to a pfSense 2.0 system. I believe there are now 2.0
images for the SBC's available, but haven't tried them.
Regards,
Doug.

I have inherited a couple of clients that are running remote SIP phones
by opening up a port (not 5060) and running SIP across it. Their
Asterisk boxes are behind a pfSense 2.0 machine that has PPTP currently
enabled for remote computers.
They have a need for more remote users, so I’m thinking maybe it’s a
good idea to change this now, rather than later.
How are people setting up remote phones? It would seem to me that having
a remote router (DD-WRT or other?) that connects to pfSense via VPN (any
suggestions or documents on how to do this).
I was going to look to see what phones have VPN capabilities built-in
(recommendations?).
I was leaning to the DD-WRT side but have concerns about detailed
instructions on how to set this up with pfSense AND QOS issues (if there
are other computers using the internet connection, not via the DD-WRT
router).
