Hello Maqbool,

setting leftsourceip to something makes charon request a virtual IP from the 
remote peer.
So that means, that the remote peer seems to be configured for config mode 
(IKEv1) or to
respond with a configuration payload with an IP address to the initiator. That 
doesn't make
sense in a site-to-site scenario. Charon is perfectly capable of figuring out 
the correct source
IP address by itself.

That probably has to do with there being a SNAT or MASQUERADE rule or generally 
wrong iptables rules. Read [1]
