792x with VPN

moabdallah · ‎12-15-2007

I want to use my Cisco 792x IP Phone from any-place ( Wi-Fi) to connect VPN to my network and access the CallManager ?

Does the Cisco 792x has this VPN feature ?

OR

Is there is any software can be installed on the Cisc 792x to create this VPN tubble and access my network ?

Regards

Nope, there's no VPN client available for the 792x phone to allow a VPN tunnel into your network. That would be a cool feature. Take your wi-fi phone to the coffee store with you! Although a softphone on your PC will work. I use it all the time in hotels with high-speed connections. It's pretty decent most of the time.

Yes not an available feature at this time.

To use remotely, would encourage to use one of the Cisco Wireless ISRs with VPN (i.e. 871W).
