First, installing so-called Mods to an untampered firmware. The site http://wiki.ip-phone-forum.de/software:ds-mod:start offers a Mod called Danisahne with some userspace programs, but no encryption module. Second approach would be a cross compiler for MIPS which means changing the firmware image and integrating loop-aes as module or into kernel. > Anyway, my question whether or not the existing loop-aes code can be compiled for MIPS remains.
