Would someone be able to tell me how I can connect my Cisco 7941 IP phone at home to connect to my office Call manager system? I currently have a softphone on my tablet pc and I can establish a VPN and get connected and was wondering if this is all I need to do?

Go Army!What we have done is throw a pix at the remote location, which established a lan-2-lan VPN with the HQ. The pix runs DHCP locally and it sets option 150 (tftp server) for the tftp server/router across the VPN connection... it works fine.
You can also use UC Proxy (if you don't want to do an L2L VPN with PIX or 87x router for example) - we use it for a half-dozen people or so. You need to license it each firewall if you cluster.
For the first three or four, it's cheaper to go PIX/router. Once you hit 5 or so, UC Proxy becomes a better option IMHO.
