Hi Martin, Thanks for your answer.
It's not clear to me why using a larger pool would solve the problem. My pool is already quite large and has many addresses available. The gateway refuses to assign the virtual IP (be it the same or a new one) to the new tunnel because a virtual IP is already assigned for the peer identity and it thinks it's still online. Do you know when strongSwan detects that the tunnel is dead and releases the lease for the IP otherwise? Thanks again. Cheers, Benoit.
