I'm not sure where ESP is going to come into this, or how the traffic
you will be receiving will be generated. I suspect you may need to
reconsider your application design a little.
The only way to get hold of the IP headers is to use SOCK_RAW, which
delivers everything that comes in from the packet driver.
What is it you're actually trying to do? If you perform the
transformation you outline in the diagrams above then the IP header will
certainly contain the wrong protocol value for a start.
