Note: I have never used a Cisco 831. All I know about it is what I
just read off of the Internet a few minutes ago.

Currently, my network just has a cheap intel box with OpenBSD doing
nat/firewall. My question is how do I make the openbsd nat/firewall box
disappear in front of the 831, so that her 7960 can configure appropriately
and her work doesn't get all uptight that she is not connecting it the way
they suggest.
How is her work suggesting she connect?
Is the 831 supposed to establish a VPN back towards her office? If
yes, will *all* traffic be routed back to the office (i.e. will the
gateway of the default route become the VPN GW at the other end of the
tunnel) or will traffic *not* in the IP ranges used by her office be
routed normaly to the Internet? If there will be *no* VPN towards her
office, is the 7960 phone using SIP or SCCP for signalling?
I guess the alternative is that I move the openbsd box and all of my
computers behind the 831
It depends on if and how the 831 establishes a VPN back to her office.
