Perhaps someone can answer this for me..as I’m not sure…”blonde moment”

We have a hub/spoke setup with our offices right now.

Main office has a Sonicwall VPN router that acts as a VPN endpoint, as well as the gateway/firewall for the office.

We have 3 more offices.

Office A
Office B
Office C

Those 3 offices also have sonicwall VPN routers that act as a firewall/gateway for those offices…each of those 3 sonicwalls also setup a VPN tunnel back to the Sonicwall in our main office.

The problem:

We’ve been setting up IP phones in these offices.

All the offices can talk to our main office, but none of them can talk to each other.

In other words..Office A, B and C can talk to any of the IP phones in the main office, but Office A can’t talk to Office C..Office C can’t talk to Office B…etc etc.

So…now my question is this.

Since these are $400 sonicwall routers(no one likes spending money on the good stuff icon_sad.gif ) is it possible to route between the different remote offices through the VPN tunnels?

Does that make any sense? Let me know if it doesn’t.
