Package: strongswan
Version: 4.2.4-5
Severity: normal
This is strange situation caused by unknown reason. I have configured simple
and symmetric site to site tunnel like this:
conn %default
ikelifetime = 15m
keylife = 5m
rekeymargin = 1m
keyingtries = 1
conn SUN-MOON
leftcert = sunCert.pem
left = 192.168.1.1
leftsubnet = 192.168.2.0/24
rightcert = moonCert.pem
right = 192.168.3.1
rightsubnet = 192.168.4.0/24
keyexchange = ikev2
auto = start
The similar configuration is on the other side. There are no problem when
connection initiating from one side of tunnel and VPN are working fine. But if
it is originated from other side, the following scenario are rolling up. At the
first time ipsec started, the tunnel is build and working as should. It is
successfully rekeying few times with keylife period. But when ikelifetime
expired, the tunnel destroyed and rebuild again repeatedly in the endless loop.
Analyzing the syslog I have found the only difference between two side in the
strange message:
charon: 08[IKE] reauthenticating IKE_SA due address change
If this means ip address then it is not true: no address changed. I have tried
to reproduce this situation on the virtual machines with most close network
configuration without success. Changing interfaces and firewall and default
route has no effect. Adding mobike = no to config cause this endless loop
immediately after ipsec starting up. I can't find the source of problem.
