Are there any open source products that are comparable to Cisco Security Manager?  I have 40 WAN sites with 2811's and the CCP is limited and the price of the Secuity Manager is too high.

I don't think there is any free  tool at the moment that will allow you to provision Cisco-based VPNs  like CSM (for a large number of devices).

However you can use generic tools  like Rancid, Kiwi Cat Tools, Nagios, OpenNMS, Zibbix etc. to achieve  what you want. You could start with SDM/ASDM etc. to finish a few  devices, and then use on of these tools to replicate it out to a large  number of devices. Of course the configuraton on the branches/spokes  would depend on the VPN technology you have chosen. Some technologies  have an identical configuration on all spokes and others do not (e.g.  GRE Tunnel IP in DMVPN).

However this would require some homework from  your side.
