This apears in my log file:

Apr 17 18:43:04 fwhq03 charon: 11[IKE] assigning virtual IP 192.168.8.1 to peer 'jlan--------------e.nl'

It seems that somehow strongswan can't assign a virtual IP address to the peer.

Config:

If I run the check script for the kernel modules, I get this: (this is basically a standard ubuntu setup)

Kernel version: 4.4.0-145-generic

Any idea how to diagnose this issue?

Kind regards,


Jeroen.
