I've been able to get the Cisco phone working behind the firewall now.
I'm able to make and receive phone calls.

There is one item which isn't working.  Our PBX is outside of the
pfsense firewall.  These Cisco phones use TFTP to pull the config files.
For some reason, I can't get the phones to connect to our PBX via TFTP.
They connect fine if I manually configure each phone one by one, but I
would prefer to use TFTP to update the configs.

I googled around and noticed that people were using siproxyd.  Should I
install that via pfSense?  Or is there something else I can do that will
allow tftp to work?

Thanks again.

Patrick
