It should be adaptable, and is a good starting point.

In the short term, anyone who needs encryption between n * boxen, and
controls all of them, should give ipsec a test.  They've also had to
deal with encrypting a non-reliable packet-stream, and have been
working on it for several years now....  (The major dists should all
support it in their kernels; if you compile your own it is not
difficult to add to 2.4 kernels -- 2.6.0 already has it.)
