Hello,

I have seen this same behaviour and have called into ISS Technical
support regarding this matter.  I have seen this with both Nortel
Contivity VPN's and CheckPoint SecureRemote VPN happening over a segment
that has a RealSecure Network Sensor (versions 5.0 & 6.0).  The only
workaround I have seen is to disable the check, or at least the
alerting.  There is no way to filter this event according to the
following article from the ISS Knowledgebase:

Why don't filters work for some RealSecure events? 
 
  Question 
  Attempts to filter certain RealSecure events have no effect.

This information applies to:
RealSecure Network Sensor 3.2.x and higher

Fix version:
N/A

  There are some RealSecure events which are not affected by User
Defined Filters in the RealSecure product. There are two main reasons
for this:

1) Some RealSecure decodes (such as the IP level checks and UDP Bomb)
take place so early in packet parsing that not enough of the packet has
been discovered to reliably apply a filter.

2) Performance consideration. A real SYNFlood and PingFlood can often
result in a huge packet load for the network sensor. Bypassing the
filtering sub-routines allows RealSecure to more reliably report the
events without dropping packets.

Below you will find a list of Non-Filterable Events in RealSecure.

IP Level: 
IPProtocolViolation 
IPFrag 
IPUnknownProtocol 
SourceRoute 
PingOfDeath 
TearDrop

TCP Level: 
SYNFlood 

UDP Level: 
UDPBomb

ICMP Level: 
PingFlood
 
I hope that this helps!
