Description

When a peer identifier is set to "Any" the resulting swanctl.conf remote block does not contain an id line. According to the strongSwan docs it should be id = %any.

Might also need to account for that in the secrets section as well. Though checking briefly here I do see %any in at least one of my configurations.

As a result this seems to be causing strongSwan to match sometimes and not others, but it needs more testing to identify why.

To reproduce the problem, restore the attached IPsec config section to a system without IPsec. Edit/save/apply on the IPsec tunnel.

Check the generated /var/etc/ipsec/swanctl.conf file and the remote block will be missing the identifier. Additionally, the secrets block will be missing.

        remote {
            auth = psk
        }

On a snapshot with the fix, the same tunnel will have an id line in the remote block, and a secrets block

        remote {
            id = %any
            auth = psk
        }
[...]
secrets {
    ike-0 {
        secret = 0sZTA3NDhmOWEwY2YwODBiNTExOGNjY2IzNzBlZWEwMWM3MmYzYzliODVlMWUzYTI0NDVkZjEwYzc=
        id-0 = %any
        id-1 = %any
    }
}
