Yes, and yes. Cryptomaps will only work with traffic coming into the router
on that interface. The router can't do crypto stuff to packets that are
already internal to the router. As far as the time delay for the tunnel to
form, it's normal, especially with 2500s. 2600s and higher are much faster.
Only takes a second or two for the tunnel to form.
