Note that I warned that special considerations needed to be taken into
account for domain controllers and ipsec policies should be tested first as
per below.
"Ipsec policies take quite a bit of planning and testing and
domain controllers require special consideration with exempting them for
traffic that involves authentication and Active Directory with domain
computers. The links below will explain more and the ipsec white paper on
domain isolation [last link] would be something you may want to strongly
consider. --- Steve"
What "might " work is to use netsh to unassign the domain ipsec policy and
then reboot the computer. I don't know for sure as I have never tried such.
See the link below for more details. --- Steve

You can manage Active Directory-based policy by using the IP Security Policy
Management console or by using the netsh ipsec static set store
location=domain command. IPSec policies that are configured and assigned for
the domain take precedence over the local, active IPSec policy on a
computer, when that computer is a member of the domain. Active
Directory-based policy overrides any local IPSec policy that is assigned,
and it adds to the persistent IPSec policy that has already been applied by
the IPSec Policy Agent, if a persistent policy has been configured
