Lars,

Do you mean UDP Encapsulation Mode to ensure generic IKE/IPSec over NAT
devices or the SecuRemote specific version, commonly encapsulating all
the IPSec traffic in UDP und sending over port 551? I can be wrong, but
this was required when we had the IPSec client (like SecurRemote) behind
a NAT device, e.g. the underlying transport path carrying the IPSec
traffic was NATed. Thus, in most configurations, it won't be required,
hence the VPN connection is usually not NATed - unless your connection
to an external ADSL modem (the ZyXEL Prestige 652 is a workaround in
this case), the ISP or corporate network does.

Not aware SecuRemote is fully supporting the proposed NAT traversal
extensions for IPSec (Internet draft "UDP Encapsulation of IPSec
Packets" and "Negotiation of NAT-Traversal in IKE") [think these are the
draft titles, wording can vary slightly]. On the other hand I remember
this is already supported by Microsoft's L2TP/IPSec clients, while there
are not many NAT traversal capable VPN servers available.

Not aware either the ZyWALL series is fully supporting these new IPSec
extensions already, but i'll have a chat with the ZyXEL QA and
developers, and let you know.

-Kurt.
