This calculator is the reason for this question:
https://ipsec-overhead-calculator.netsec.us/
If you have two cisco routers with a site to site tunnel using the following policy:
crypto isakmp policy 1
encryption aes256
hash sha512
group 16
authentication pre-share
crypto isakmp key Pass123 address 1.1.1.1
crypto ipsec transform-set T1 esp-aes esp-sha-hmac
mode tunnel
crypto ipsec profile P1
set transform-set T1
What part matches which field in the calculator? Specifically the AH, ESP - Encryption, ESP - Integrity fields....thanks!

@ColForbin the calculator is referring to the IPSec SA (transform set). Where you define ESP or AH (unlikely that is used) and the mode tunnel or transport.
crypto ipsec transform-set T1 esp-aes esp-sha-hmac
mode tunnel
