Hi, Usually to solve a potential network issue you'll prefer to capture the frames before they are encrypted. But if you want to see the IPSec frames or the tunnel, I usually place a hub on the link of the PC I want to capture and use a laptop running Wireshark and capture promiscuously.

Why can't I see the encrypted packets Well, given the fact that there were lot's of problems with VPN software (incl. Cisco VPN) reported - from not seeing any interfaces to crashing various software parts, I would say you can be glad that you see any traffic at all ...
