Let us be clear here.
Setting it up with cmdline tools (defining and assigninng) the IPsec
policy must be sensitive to the OS version as the tools differ.
Setting it up as in a network connection setup (binding) then used
the rules of the effective IPsec policies on the machines.
If you want a tunnel then you are talking about using VPN.
