I have similar configuration and same problem.
I have compiled several log messages to my kernel
and it looks as follows:
After EPS decapsulation packet is re-injected to input queue
and then processed by ip_input.
On line 402 ( ip_input.c, 4.4-RELEASE )
is
if (ipsec_gethist(m, NULL ))
goto pass;
Condition is true and firewall skipped.
Is it feature or bug?
