Hello all,

I'm trying to connect to my companies network. They have a Juniper 
SRX-100 as VPN Gateway, which is working fine as tested with other VPN 
clients. I'm using strongswan 5.5.3.

I'm using IKEv1 aggressive mode, PSK+XAUTH. The connection is 
established, but i cannot ping any member of the company network.

Ipsec log:

I searched but did not found a solution to this problem. Did anybody 
ever have this problem?

I also postet on serverfault: 
https://serverfault.com/questions/864799/strongswan-vpn-successfull-but-cannot-ping-anything

I'd really appreciate some help or hint.

Thank you very much and best regards,
