Hi There,

NLR - Not List Related.  If this does not interest you, then please

A client of mine is interested in using GETVPN to simplify full-mesh
IPSec deployments.  They have a requirement to hide the IPs of the
hosts talking over the VPN.  This is currently done via sending
everything down a GRE tunnel so the only traffic seen over the network
is just the tunnel endpoints, as opposed to the talking hosts.

Consider:

HostA--R1--OtherNetwork--R2--HostB

"OtherNetwork" being the transit network.  Someone sitting in there
only sees a bunch of encrypted traffic from R1 to R2 and vice-versa.
They dont know it is HostA talking to HostB or some other host on each
site.  With GETVPN and IP Header Preservation (which has its merits)
one can see the originating hosts, with the data being encrypted.

So, is there any way to conceal the end host IP addresses whilst using
GETVPN?  The configuration guide just tells me how good IP Header
Preservation is
(http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/sec_secure_connectivity/configuration/guide/sec_encrypt_trns_vpn_ps10591_TSD_Products_Configuration_Guide_Chapter.html)
and some Googling the best result I can find is that "By default,
GETVPN preserves the header".  The word "default" implies I can change
this default behaviour somehow.

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
Matt
