IPO500 LAN2 on Public IP for Remote IP Phones-beating the dead horse

[waldrondigital]

Question: Can I put the IP 500 on a public IP (i.e. LAN2, with a 0.0.0.0 route to it) and expect remote phones to work through their respective NAT routers on the other side?

or

Could I put the IP500 on a public IP and put the remote phone on the DMZ (with some QoS rules) of whatever router is on the other side? I've done this before with MGCP with good results... but not with an Avaya on the other side.

I know, I know, VPN VPN VPN. Get a VPN concentrator, and a VPN router at each remote. Or get a concentrator and VPN phone licenses.

I have a very small client that likes it very high-tech. I really want to avoid putting in a $1000 firewall as well as all the VPN phone licenses necessary for this to work if I can avoid it. They can live without call encryption too.

They have FIOS at 50mbs / 21mbs so we're good on bandwidth. That was actually the Speakeasy/Ookla speedtest results... !

Please don't hate me for asking

No go !!!
Put in a netgear fv318 VPN router and use VPN phones
the fv318 can handle 8 VPN phones and is well below the $200
If you want to do it like asked you will have much trouble if you get it working which I doubt
