My experience differs. I have a bunch of site-to-site VPNs on IPSEC,
partially to not very large sites, and most enterprisey routers I've met
can do an IPSEC tunnel just fine.

How many sizeable enterprises or government entities do you know that
really reside in just one building or even campus? The requirement
to be able to connect a satellite office to headquarters is not really
esoteric.
