I've setup IPSEC over UDP before and found it to work quite nice. If there is 
some kind of option for sending keepallives i would enable it, if anything 
just to keep the udp connection in the statetable on the firewall fresh. 
I haven't tried TCP just because i didn't want worry about tcp mss/pmtu/frag
issues.

oh btw that was with a cisco 3030 vpn concentrator.
