I have two sites that do not have VPN's setup. They do have available public IP addresses that are not being used.

My question might sound simple. Could I use one of the Public IP addresses and point it directly to the WAN (unused) port on the IP office? or to Voice Mail Pro? Just looking for some ideas.

One system has no voice mail at all.

The other system is running VM Pro.

Thanks
 
I would not advise doing that. a public IP on the IPO will get your hacked. I dont even thing putting a public facing interface on the VM would be a good idea. use something like log me in or splashtop. thats what we do.

No. Don't do this.
Put logmein or teamviewer or something on the receptionists PC and load manager on it.
The system running vmpro you should be able to put remote access software on.

We use GoToAssist and install an unattended connection client on the remote PC (the VM Pro PC), works great!
