VPN's as General rule work very well compared to NAT Translation. I
have two remote offices with 5 Grandstream GXP2000 SIP Phones in each
both with 1Mbit SDSL. I use Juniper Netscreen 5GT's to handle the
interoffice VPN's using Route Based VPN. One thing I have noticed
however is you cannot have a space in the sip peer name i.e 'Chris
Teesdale' Would have to be 'ChrisTeesdale' for it too work.
