{SPAM?} [Asterisk-Users] Asterisk VIA SSH Tunnels

This is not an endorsement of any methodology, just a few points:

1) CIPE  though non-standard, uses a UDP-based transport.  Therefore it 
can be used to tunnel just about anything, and can be used for VPN 
servers, though probably not routers.

2) CIPE is lighter-weight than IPSec.  However, the fact that it is 
non-standard means that your end-point needs to support it.

3)  CIPE is capable of being forwarded through a SOCKS proxy.  Ipsec 
cannot do this.

Personally I would use IPSec, but there are circumstances where it is 
not the optimal solution.
