At this time Pktgen does not support IPSec packets. The only way to use Pkt=
gen 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 an=
other machine the convert IPSec to clear text back to Pktgen. I hope that i=
s clear.
