> IKEv2 should be able to create SA when there are only policies installed and a packet matches with the policy. That was reason I was expecting for above ping to work. If that is not the case what is the use of ACQUIRE message? Let me know if I am missing something here.<br>

</span>Charon can only initiate an SA to a remote host, if it has a configuration for that host. Because you installed the policies yourself, charon does not have a configuration.<br>

You have to configure it correctly and use auto=route. Do not install policies yourself. As you found out, it does not work if you do that.<br>
