IPSec router to router ACL bypass

Hi All,

I have two routers connected together with an IPSec tunnel. I want to
have an ACL on the 'outside' (internet facing) interfaces (obviously).
However I don't want my tunnelled traffic to be subject to the ACL.

Previously I achieved this by running a GRE over the IPSec tunnel but I
want to avoid all of the MTU MSS issues by going to a pure IPSec tunnel
only.

When running different IOS images I have discovered that the firewall
version seems to work by bypassing the interface ACL for encrypted
traffic whilst the IPSec only version means that I hit the external ACL
for my encrypted traffic.

Can anyone shed any light on how to bypass an interface ACL when your
IPSec connection terminates on that interface?

It's bugging me you see....

Richard
