Maybe i will simply give it a try.. in this case you shouldn't run into any problems: I'm also using the WRAP as tunnel endpoint (OpenVPN mostly, but also IPSec) and the only thing affected until now has been SSH.
Otoh: as others already mentioned, the performance benefit won't be knocking you off your feet as long as there are only one or two users. Well, at least the VPN1411 isn't _that_ expensive. ;) Hopefully, you'll have much fun with your Soekris box.
