[strongSwan] Can NOT Ping private client IP from Strongswan VPN server

Hello Tobias,

I managed to pick *10.10.10.1* from the server, after restarting StrongSwan
from the client. However, I cant telnet port 80, might be a port
forwarding issue. One question, I would like to ask is, how come the VPN
server never gets assigned a private IP?
What can I ping on the server from the client apart from the server's
public IP that can be used to ascertain the VPN connection?

As always, thanks a lot for your help.
