          @artemis This means that IPSEC is not enabled at boot time

          Or missing phase 1
          Or phase 1 is disabled

              @konstanti Try to set IKEV2without the l2tp/IPSEC
              From the documentation
              We strongly recommend using another solution such as IKEv2 instead of L2TP/IPsec.

                      Ok. To describe it, am showing you that the phase1 is enabled from the gui and the interface is not up.

                        When booting the PF checks whether it is enabled to initialize IPSEC
                        If not , enc0 set to down
                        And files strongswan.conf, ipsec.conf,..... not created

                        Try to configure access using IKEV2 without l2tp

                              Right now i am feeling that i want to dig a hole and put myself in. I thought that green (Enabled) was the status of the phase 1. Omg and the worst part is that i am a network engineer(CCNP). OMG. Thank you very much.

                                @artemis said in IPsec configuration files lost after reboot.:

                                I thought that green (Enabled) was the status of the phase 1.

                                There is a big difference between Enable and Enabled.
