Since IPSEC is an integral part of IPv6 won't this have an affect on the deep packet inspection firewalls? Is this type of inspection expected to work in IPv6?

Perhaps using some kind of NAP the firewall is allowed to speak on behalf of the host(s) it firewalls, so that to the client it appears to be the firewall itself appears to be the IPSEC endpoint?
