Contivity VPN woes

I have a home Enet firewalled behind a linux
box. My wife can bring her laptop home
from work and connect it to our home net and
pretty much everything just works - I serve
her an IP addr via DHCP and (except for the
Contivity VPN stuff) she's off and running.
I got the following email from her IT guy at
work and I wonder if anybody can offer any tips:

Is my firewall scrogging us? I clearly need
to learn more about IPsec and VPN stuff...
