Thanks for that - it does seem that the phone I was thinking of was a Snom.

Looking at these instructions for setting up OpenVPN on the Snom 370 phone:

http://wiki.snom.com/Networking/Virtual_Private_Network_%28VPN%29

lower down, in one of the the vpn.cnf which is the config file for the 
phone, the "remote random" directive actually is specified - which is 
the load balancing mechanism used by OpenVPN. So it does seem to support it.
