In my opinion (non-native english speaker), the paragraph is misleading. if_enc(4) cannot be »used« for IPSec, but proviedes access to decapsulated ESP traffic processd in kernel space. I would understand this paragraph as if I could construct any kind of VPN(IPSec)-tunnel with if_enc(4). Mybe it's just me, please jump in experts! Thanks, -Harry
