[cisco-voip] SEP.cnf.xml with VPN phone/config

[Jared Mauch]

I'm looking to use a 3rd party SIP solution and VPN system and wanted to try to make it work while we wait for our CM to ship.

The java/cnu based phones are horrible at nat traversal and I want to run a PPTP or other vpn solution actually on the IP PBX so the phones can work around the broken nat.  If someone from Cisco wants to contact me off-list (we have TAC support, so I can open a case as well) I'd be happy to work with you to help solve these defects.

I'm working with the 7965 and 7975 phones.  To have VPN support one needs to run the 9.X firmware.

(Still waiting on my CM to ship -- send me ~30 phones and no CM and i'll make it work with our existing IP PBX :).
