Please log in for more thread options Just to clarify a little . . .
IPsec in tunnel mode (as Karl indicated as available with Cisco, etc.)
is one way to use IPsec. The other, transport mode between two end
systems does not require configuring a router to be involved in order
to allow it to pass the packets between the two end systems.
