Hello,

next header field(which determines coming payload as IP payload or TCP payload) in \
ESP trailer is in encrypted form hence i don;t think there will be any way to \
determine the mode of ESP packet(transport/tunnel) when packet is in transit.

Regards,
Amey.

<P>is ISAKMP icookie masquerading acceptable or the remote server has some way 
of distinguishing icookies coming from the source security gateway / 
masquerading gateway and will reject if the masquerading gateway changes the 
icookie value.</P>
<P>is there a way to distinguish tunnel mode from transport mode just by looking 
at an ESP packet.</P>
<P>is there any relation between the ISAKMP icookie and the ESP SPI ( i mean is 
the value of SPI dependent on the icookie value or is it pretty much a random 
selection from a range of unused SPIs).</P></FONT></DIR><FONT size=2>
