Our IPsec connection is working, but the status shows as down:

The IPSec Overview shows:

The "Multiple" item appears to be a combination of the two lower items, which are the two P2 settings in IPsec / Tunnels

swanctl --list-sa:

Seeing this in both 2.7.2-RELEASE and plus 24.11-RELEASE

I can't reproduce this here. It maybe a remnant leftover after a configuration change where strongSwan didn't stop and start (rather than restart). That sort of difference would be from changing between either IKEv1 vs IKEv2 or changing split connections, or things of that nature. At some point it was considering each P2 as a separate SA but now it's combining multiple P2 entries into a single SA.

You didn't include any version information or the P1 info for the same tunnel so it's impossible to speculate further, but this site is not for support or diagnostic discussion.

For assistance in solving problems, please post on the Netgate Forum .
