The hostname used have been immediately updated by way od dynamic DNS, and the TTL have expired two hours ago. When trying to up the tunnel on the side with the changed IP, Strongswan returns "received AUTHENTICATION_FAILED notify error", and when trying to do the same on the remote end the log looks like following.
