Hi,

That is because Windows and MacOS implement crappy route based IPsec which conceptually can not protect traffic to the IKE peer's
address (unless policy based routing is used, which neither Windows nor MacOS implement).

Kind regards

Noel

There is a server on which Strongswan and Nginx are installed.When you connect to the VPN and go to the site which is located in the same place as the strongswan daemon, the nginx log shows different addresses for connections. For instance:android / linux -> login from the address issued by the VPN  (for example, 192.168.1.2).
