Hi Michael,

I think remote end wants Transport mode "N(USE_TRANSP)", and local says it is 
not supported.
I suppose you are using Linux in local with "kernel-netlink" module for 
strongswan (default), so I would check if module transport is enabled in your kernel.
Refer to this doc: 
https://docs.strongswan.org/docs/5.9/install/kernelModules.html

"IP: IPsec transport mode [CONFIG_INET_XFRM_MODE_TRANSPORT]" usually can be 
checked with command in doc:
grep '\<CONFIG_INET_XFRM_MODE_TRANSPORT\>' /boot/config-`uname -r`

Also, if it is compiled as module (m), try to load it manually, I think module name is 
"xfrm4_mode_transport".

If it is not Linux, you must check your local OS (or strongswan module, if not 
using kernel-netlink) to properly support Transport mode.

Regards,
Carlos Velasco

Hi,


I googled but I did not find a reasonable answer. We try to set up some
specific strongswan-strongswan connection in transport mode. The log says:


NET received packet: from x.x.x.x[4500] to y.y.y.y[4500] (240 bytes)}
ENC parsed CREATE_CHILD_SA request 7 [ N(USE_TRANSP) SA No KE TSi TSr ]}

ESP failed to create SAD entry}
IKE unable to install inbound and outbound IPsec SA (SAD) in kernel}
IKE failed to establish CHILD_SA, keeping IKE_SA}
ENC generating CREATE_CHILD_SA response 7 [ N(NO_PROP) ]}

What exactly does "IPsec SA: unsupported mode" mean? unsupported mode
"transport"?

Or unsupported cipher algorithms? Or anything else went wrong?
