You might want to look into RFC1825-1829, which specify the Internet
Security Architecture (which includes encrypted tunnels).  The
mechanisms specified shall be integral part of IPv6 and can also
be used with IPv4.  Several independent, but interoperable
implementations are being developed or already finished.

The key management problems are currently being worked on by the
IETF IP-SEC working group, several internet drafts have already
been published (Photuris, SKIP and others).

Check your favourite RFC/ID archive.

\Bernhard.
