[strongSwan] IPv6 in IPv4 without having any native IPv6 connectivity, policy based VPN

Hello list,

I ran into the issue that I can't connect over IPv6 over my 6in4 tunnel using IPsec as a policy based VPN,
because there's no next hop and hence no valid route for the IPv6 traffic.
Is there any workaround or hack to this issue, other than using a route based VPN?

Error message when pinging is: ping: sendmsg: Invalid argument
Ping natively tries IPv6 first, if there's an IPv6 address and a AAAA record, it seems, although there's no route.

Kind regards

Noel
