If the firewall opens the Megaco port(2944/5), then the 
signalling will go through.  The problem will be the media streams.  
If you are using UDP/RTP, then you will have the problem of 
dynamically allocated UDP ports, a known Firewall issue.

A Package won't solve this.  There are a number of ways 
to deal with it, none of which are too great.  I would observe 
that the problems, and the solutions are similar among all the 
Voice-over-data signalling (Megaco, MGCP, SIP, BICC).  
The long term answer is MIDCOM.
