Description

Hello,

according to https://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/Fromipsecconf:
old style configuration

rightdns=<ip>[,…]     

should be transformed to the next records:
connections.<conn>.pools=<poolname>
pools.<poolname>.dns=<ip>[,…]

but 2.5.1 version config generated in the following way:

pools {
}
mobile-pool {
        dns = 10.71.1.11,10.70.3.11
        28679 = "20" 
}

and connection

con-mobile-defaults {
...
        pools = radius-pool, radius
...

"radius" is a special internal pool in strongSwan, which expects settings to be returned from RADIUS and not defined in the configuration.

Though "radius-pool" should be defined to include the settings from "mobile-pool" as a template which would bring in the DNS settings from there, and that seems to not be making it into the config in certain cases.

Reverted RADIUS-specific parts of the change here for now, it was causing the configuration to fail. Can try again before the next release.
