In fact, our Cisco account manager called me from home yesterday from her softphone over a pretty crazy connection. Her PC with the VPN software connects via wireless to a wireless hub and then to a cable modem. She was connecting from Denver all the way to San Jose to their concentrator, and then hopped onto another high-speed connection back to Cisco's offices in Denver to hop onto the PSTN. I was pretty impressed with the sound quality considering that network path!

RE: VPN and VoIP [7:70640]
The best solution for this would be a hardware VPN client so both devices can take advantage of the VPN tunnel or use a router and terminate it on the VPN concentrator, the hardware client is a no-brainer to setup.

Can this be done with the following setup. DSL modem at home connected to a small switch. The home PC and the IP phone connect to the Switch which connects to the DSL modem. The PC has Cisco VPN client installed and can connect to the Head-office where the VPN concentrator is. Now for the IP Phone, how will it connect,. It will have a private IP address but , doesn't have a VPN client like the PC has. What is the solution for this type of application.

You can configure the router as a EZ VPN client. When you attempt to make a connection via the router it will ask for username and password, then authenticate you to the VPN Headend allowing all traffic to pass. It is also possible to configure this so that the Phones are always on, and only users have to authenticate. There are a number of design references.
