I recently was relating on the list how a client was having a problem
with their Linksys BEFSX41 router and the solution was that Linksys
RMA'd the router. They apparently have removed the BEFSX41 model from
their active product list so they sent me a BEFVP41 v2 model. I received
it yesterday,

Quite possible. If it's using X.509 certificates (like SSL does),
one can specify effective and expiration dates in the certificate. If

It's definitely using IKE.
Okay, IPsec with IKE can use PSK or X.509 certificates. Which one
is your LinkSys using?
If it's PSK
