Then you are indeed using NATD, which means...

=2E.. that you aren't using AH. I, too, connect to a Contivity using the
Nortel client. I haven't configured a Contivity before, but a buddy
(that works in "LABS" for the company that I work for) works on them all
the time, and he confirmed that the Contivity supports IPSec with or
without AH.
The point here is that you can't use AH in conjunction with NAT since AH
computes the checksum of the IP header, which includes your 192.168.0.x
address. Using NAT will change the source IP address, leaving the
checksum invalid.

Yes.

I don't have any rules for AH (protocol 51), and you won't need them
either.
