Hello,

We are migrating from strongswan-4.5 to strongswan-5.1.1 and currently running into the routing problems.
Could you help us to settle a weird situation with the strongswan-5.1.1, which we built on the Centos 5.3 distribution?

The configuration is quite classical: net-to-net ( 192.168.3.0/24 === 192.168.4.0/24 )
We need to tunnel the traffic in between the several private networks. The ipsec channels are well established:

[root at academ strongswan]# strongswan status
Security Associations (2 up, 0 connecting):
   msc-hmnet[10]: ESTABLISHED 30 minutes ago, 195.91.195.62[certificate M]...82.239.221.28[certificate K]

[root at academ strongswan]# ip route list table 220

192.168.169.0/24 via 195.91.195.33 dev eth1  proto static  src 192.168.3.56 

But out of the 2 tunnels only 1 is reachable. The other one doesn't ping.

If I set on the remote 192.168.4.10:

I am running out of the ideas what could be done and how to troubleshoot the configuration.
Could you prompt any solution?
Regards,
Serge
