Subject: [strongSwan] Connection to AWS-VPC


NCS WARNING: External email. Please verify sender before opening attachments or clicking on links.

Has anyone successfully connected to AWS VPC? My connection is established and ICMP-Pakets are routed through the AWS cloud. However, UDP and TCP packets - while being sent towards the AWS server (from tcp dump on the client side) - do not appear in the logs of the VPC.

With a corresponding setup with OpenSwan I get a working connection. However, I would prefer to use strong Swan.

If you have successfully connected to AWS VPC, could you please share your configuration files?

Thanks
Kind regards
Dominik
