Thanks Guys for your help. I think I'm nearly there, I just need some more pieces to the puzzle. I guess I need to weigh up whether I try to get this working or just build my own firewall in a VM using Astlinux or something else (currently sounds tempting).

But it is quite complicated and no fun - garanteed. If you do need really need it for specific reasons, I would suggest to use OpenVPN or WireGuard instead! >> On Oct 4, 2019, at 10:04 PM, Michael Knill <michael.kn...@ipcsolutions.com.au> wrote: >> >> Hi Group >> >> I need to set up IPSEC tunnels from multiple Astlinux Clients to an Astlinux Server (initial testing).
