[strongSwan] Can I use StrongSwan to set up a local loopback just to test the encryption and decryption throughput?

Hello Charlie,

No, you can't. You need two distinct kernels. Using a VM for that will work though
by using your host as one participant and a VM as another participant in the IKE exchange
and build a tunnel between them. You can then just drop the esp packets on one participant.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen/Regards,
