It's for Apple iphone usage connecting direct to the company via a VPN.

The iphone supports L2TP, PPTP and Cisco IPSEC.

For example, setup the iphone so it can connect to our network via vpn
wherever it is, so it can securely connect to our exchange server. (to
send/receive email, calendar and contacts functionality)

I've been having a bit of a playaround with endian in vmware
workstation, from what I can discern it seems using ipsec would be my
best option. Although i've yet to get this totally figured out.

Honestly, your question is somewhat vague, can you give more information
about your desired setup.

Here is some basic info on how I've used Endian with IP phones and how I
know it can be used in conjunction with IP phones.

Endians can terminate IPSec and OpenVPN connections.

I've connected remote sites using two Endian boxes and passed VoIP
traffic across those VPN tunnels w/out issues.  For those connections,
I've used the OpenVPN server as it just works flawlessly.  I've used it
in both routed and bridged mode as well.

I've connected remote sites using an Endian box at one end an a Cisco
PIX firewall at the other.  For this, I used the IPSec server and with a
little tweaking it worked great.  I was also able to get VoIP
connections to work well across this connection too.

For mobile users I've used the OpenVPN client on laptops with
softphones.  These connectons have worked relatively well too.  It
really depends on the quality of the internet connection.  In busy
hot-spots there is just too much jitter to get a quality voice
connection across the VPN, but from users homes it's worked quite well.

I've read that some providers are putting out IP Phones that can
terminate their own IPSec VPN connections in the phone itself.  I see no
reason why this would not work with Endian, but given that some
manufacturers make it difficult to get VPN connections to work with
other manufacturers (SonicWall for example) I can not guarantee that
you'll be able to get these to work.

I'm going to be soon starting a VoIP project at my home, and will post
back should I learn anything new.

Does anyone know if it is possible to configure Endian for usage with an
iphone over a VPN?

I'm currently trying to figure out what firewall is best to purchase,
Endian is on that list but trying to find any information about Endian,
VPN's and iphones is pretty damn hard.

Thanks

Mark
