That's not an error, just a warning from UMIP when it detects a tunnel
interface. Anyway, it is not in the set of interfaces you have defined
in your mip6d.conf file.

It's difficult to help without the content of your sa_setkey.conf. Can
you either send it or investigate that point. First guess would be that
the BU does not leave the MN because the SP put in place by UMIP
requires protection, but there is no usable SA to provide that
protection (because of a mismatch).
