I've had problems setting up IPsec sessions using certificates

Basically, the IKEv2 packets are large UDP packets and they are fragmented

I believe that using ECDSA instead of RSA certificates reduces the size
of these packets, but ECDSA is not universally supported.  I'd like to
understand whether Shorewall can and should support these fragmented UDP
flows.

I found a post from 3 December suggesting that IPv6 fragmentation is
troublesome without a recent kernel so I'm just looking at IPv4 for now.

Looking at the problem with tcpdump, I typically see UDP packets sent
with 1644 bytes, slightly bigger than the MTU.

Are there any specific rules or shorewall.conf settings that need to be
added/tweaked to make this work?
