hi, with encryption-alg = null and authentication-alg = hmac-sha1, I can see clear traffic with wireshark option 'attempt to detect/decode NULL encrypted ESP payloads'. with encryption-alg = null and authentication-alg = hmac-sha256, traffic is not decoded. I only see ESP SPI and sequence, not the encapsulated protocol. Why ? thanks and regards
