Ah, I guess this means you're following the instructions in the FreeBSD
handbook, which last time I looked gave a most bizarre and unnecessary way
of setting up IPSEC (GIF tunneling running on top of IPSEC *tunnel* mode). I
raised it on this list before.

Most people are better off just setting up IPSEC tunnel mode. A few use GIF
running on top of IPSEC _transport_ mode (e.g. those running routing
protocols like OSPF over tunnels)
