Why do you run a such old kernel with several bugs and even well known
serious among them? And more you try to make it part in a security
chain, exposed to the public net?

You need to insert a command set into the .spec file which adds
"CONFIG_IPSEC_NAT_TRAVERSAL=y" (or =m; don't know what that is best
here) to all the .config files the kernel src.rpm ships with.

Again, please choose a current Fedora kernel or at least the latest
vanilla kernel from kernel.org.
