Hmmm... I wonder what literature you are referring to. There is nothing in our literature that mentions IPSec clients. We do mention that we support IPSec (an industry standard) however there are many options to IPSec standard). IPSec is a very broad standard thus making interoperability not an easy task. In reality there are very few IPSec products that interoperate with each other.
The initial release of GNAT Box 3.0.x support IPSec with manual keying (we implement the tunnel mode only as the transport mode does make much sense with our product). The target of this release was GNAT Box to GNAT Box. We never have mentioned that this release will work with other products. I do know that it will interoperate with most of the BSD Unix and Linux IPSec implementations. Our upcoming GNAT Box 3.1.0 is scheduled to include support for IKE. This should provide GNAT Box with more interoperability with other IPSec implementations. Note: In the IPSec standard there is nothing that addresses mobile clients with dynamic IP addresses.
