the packet is seen once as ESP/AH and once as normal (e.g. TCP)
packet. where is the connection? how can you see that a packet
came in first as ESP/AH packet and was then decrypted, and did
not came in without ipsec?
with freeswan that was easy: drop everything, unless it is from
interface ipsec0. And you always new, packets from ipsec0 came
in with valid ipsec encryption, that was easy to make sure.
and now? use fwmark? even if that works, its not as easy.

I'm a "road warrior", so the local wireless lan gives me a
192.168.* address. For my ipsec tunnel to $company gateway
I need get an official address assigned, so I can use that
to access the company network, or even the internet (if I don't
trust the local network, and don't want unencrypted connections
to the internet). I think such a setup will be quite common.
local lan some nat company gateway
192.168.0.* <-> 192.168.0.1 <-> 1.2.3.4
ipsec tunnel
1.2.3.5 <-> 1.2.3.4
connetion will use 1.2.3.5 <-> 1.2.3.80 (e.g. company file server,
allowing access from 1.2.3.*).
ip route del default
ip route add default gw 192.168.0.1 src 1.2.3.5
yes, that works. but it's not nice.
also company getway needs a
ip route add 1.2.3.5 dev eth0/1/2/whatever
even though no packet to "1.2.3.5" will ever be on any
wire - the packet will be alway encrypted and have a final
ip address somewhere in the internet or wireless network.
hmm. I haven't tried to use an explicit ipip tunnel.
did anyone use ESP in transport mode to encrypt packets
of an IPIP tunnel? that might help me.
