MikeC,

You started this saying "In MPA, is there any reason why, just like what is allowed with CRC, one cannot have a system administrator knob to disable the use of markers 
when IPsec is being used?"

With IPsec on, the CRC may not be there to check. Therefore without a marker, there may be no CRC to use to check that the segment contained an aligned FPDU.

Pat

In general, (to simplify) a receiver can take any given TCP segment, use 
the "length" to find the CRC.  If the CRC doesn't match, I don't have an 
FPDU.
