On a campus network, there's no real secure method of determining
where the packet came from at the IP level.  If a campus network (or
other open IP network) were used for tunneling of frames, what
mechanism would be required to verify the authenticity of the AX.25
frame well enough to be legal on the air?

This is an issue regardless of whether the campus network is carrying
AX.25 in IP or IP in IP or just routing IP.  Right?

(DES based signatures with a private key on both ends of the tunnel?)

Is there a corresponding RFC for the IP in IP stuff that I see was
added to NOS 910423?
