Ravi,

How would you characterize the "common method" to which you refer? I 
recall no provisions in 2401 that would allow on to characterize 
locally processed IKE traffic for processing. When we wrote 2401 we 
assumed that folks understood that this traffic need not be subject 
to the SPD/SAD controls, but we didn't make that clear. Still, a less 
than "MUST" statement may be appropriate.
