At this time Pktgen does not support IPSec packets. The only way to use Pktgen and test a IPSec unit is to have PKtgen generate clear text packets and use two IPSec systems to receive clear text convert to IPSec Packets to another machine the convert IPSec to clear text back to Pktgen. I hope that is clear.
