I am new to this list and freeswitch.<br>
<br>
I would like to know if anyone has tried freeswitch with an ipsec VPN such as<br>
openswan or strongswan and what were/should-be the settings (eg transport-<br>
mode, tunnel-mode etc), results and requirements vis a vis cpu-power,<br>
network-speed etc etc<br>
<br>
all hints and suggestions welcomed<br>
thanks in advance<br>
sibu xolo<br>
