Hi Sajal,

No, what it sends in the CERTREQ payload during IKE_SA_INIT is a
certificate request for certificates issued by SubCA2.  This payload
contains a SHA-1 hash of the issuer certificate's public key, not the
certificate.  The intermediate CA certificate should be sent as CERT
payload during the IKE_AUTH exchange.

Regards,
Tobias
