Section 2.23, paragraph starting: 
"An initiator can use port 4500 for both IKE and ESP, regardless of 
 whether or not there is a NAT, even at the beginning of IKE.". 

What does, "even at the beginning of IKE" mean? 

Does it mean, 
  "even when sending an IKE_SA_INIT request" 
or 
  "even at any point during the initial exchanges"?
