CHR 7.1.1 IKEv2 - Linux StrongSwan client

RouterOS General

Hello,
I posted this topic at the replay of this original post.

Did anyone try any Linux client using StrongSwan for a VPN connection?
I checked most of the popular Linux distributors Ubuntu, Centos, Mint, Fedora. I got the same error as below. The connection is established, Obtained a local IP, Received a pushed DNS from the mod-config. Can not set the DNS as a loopback interface.

installing DNS server IP via resolvconf
> resolvconf: Interface can't be the loopback interface (lo). Sorry.
> removing DNS server IP via resolvconf

I did some research about this and its looks like some change in the Linux DNS system. Its looks like there is a miss config. With the original StrongSwan server you can fix this with the corrected way to push the config. But there is no Charon-nm in Mikrotik.
any idea how can I fix this issue?

That’s a client side thing you need to sort out.

Thanks for the replay. as I saw the StrongSwan in the directory name, I was thinking the directory is for the StrongSwan server never acquire to me that this may have been a StrongSwan client. Thank you for pointing this out.
