Upgrading to 2.4.2 broke my IPSEC VPN!
-
When i try to connect, now I get this in my logs… No change to the config, was working a day before the upgrade. Help? Client is StrongSwan on Android.

PFS Group 2 (MODP_1024) is not acceptable to the other side in the Phase 1. Try Group 14 (MODP_2048) there.
Might be a good time to switch to AES_CBC_128 and HMAC_SHA2_256_128 while you're messing with it.
You might need to do the same kind of thing for the Phase 2. Those will look similar in the logs but be prefixed by ESP: instead of IKE:

Well honk my hooter you're right! When I'm back in the building later tonight I'll fiddle with it an update.
Thank you very much, it's a pain for my old eyes to spot that stuff these days, it's much appreciated.

Update - you were absolutely right! Switching DH groups fixed it. Wish I had spotted that, thank you!
