When running on Fedora, it may be necessary to allow ESP and IKE traffic through the host firewall. If not, this will result in ICMP host unreachable messages:
13:52:10.000695 IP 192.168.122.228 > 192.168.122.125: ESP(spi=0xa5830a6b,seq=0x2), length 156 13:52:10.000721 IP 192.168.122.228 > 192.168.122.125: ESP(spi=0xa5830a6b,seq=0x2), length 156 13:52:10.000864 IP 192.168.122.125 > 192.168.122.228: ICMP host 192.168.122.125 unreachable - admin prohibited filter, length 184 13:52:10.000874 IP 192.168.122.125 > 192.168.122.228: ICMP host 192.168.122.125 unreachable - admin prohibited filter, length 184 This commit updates the documentation to reflect this.
