Since IPSEC is an integral part of IPv6 won't this have an affect on the
deep packet inspection firewalls? Is this type of inspection expected to
work in IPv6?
Perhaps using some kind of NAP the firewall is allowed to speak on behalf
of the host(s) it firewalls, so that to the client it appears to be the
firewall itself appears to be the IPSEC endpoint?
