    Have a look here:

    Note that the basic problem of Split DNS with Split Tunnel in IKEv2 is work-in-progress regarding RFC standards.

    If you have the same subnet as the other side, both sides have to NAT to something else, else one side will think the other side is actually on its local subnet.

    I know! ;-)

    Since this is a productive system I can't easily mess with network settings.

    I have changed pfSense LAN address to 192.168.0.1 and the IP of a test server to 192.168.0.22.

    The subnet in Azure now is 10.10.0.0. The connection can be established, but machines in the different subnets still do not see each other.

    WAN, LAN, and IPsec firewall rules have all been set to allow full IP4 traffic.
    Can ping local machine from pfSense LAN and vice versa. Azure VPN shows some traffic in both directions (just a few bytes).

    Probably one of these.

    What VPS service are you connecting to? Directly to the service to the VPS? What is it if so?

    EAP-RADIUS is just EAP-MSCHAPv2 with RADIUS on the backend. If it doesn't work, the most likely problem is that our NPS config is not setup to allow EAP properly.

    See https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/book/thirdparty/radius-authentication-with-windows-server.html#adding-a-network-policy for something to check against

    If one side supports routed IPsec and the other side only supports tunneled IPsec, then it can still work provided that you only attempt to send traffic that matches the P2 entries on the remote end. Anything else would fail.

    It depends on the context. pfSense can act as a "client" for site-to-site style connections using certificate-based auth, but it is not made to support a "mobile" or remote access style client setup where the server side sends configuration data such as the interface address to use.

    I fixed it..

    I put on IPSEC PHASE 2 > NAT BINAT IP 192.168.0.x/32 and LOCAL NETWORK 10.0.0.0/24 and REMOTE NETWORK 192.168.1.0/24

    and then I made NAT 1:1 > 10.0.0.x > INTERNAL IP > 192.168.0.1 and made the rules on INTERFACES IPSEC and LAN.
    thank you.

    It means that you cannot initiate pings from a source address that is not on the firewall itself.

    For instance, if you have a Phase 2 tunnel between a local network that is behind another router on your side and a network on the remote side, the firewall itself cannot generate an interesting ping to bring up a tunnel because it cannot ping sourced from an address that is not on the firewall.

    In that case you would have to generate a keepalive ping from the network interesting to IPsec.
