Why did the Internet stop working when the ipsec tunnel was up?
Hello!
An ipsec strongswan (server) <-> Mikrotik (client) tunnel has been set up. Everything worked fine until I updated the firmware on Mikrotik from 6.40.5 to 6.44.6 - the network on the Mikrotik side stopped working, or rather Internet access. At the same time, the tunnel rises and works, but external addresses are not pinged (sometimes they are selectively pinged). It can be seen that a packet from LAN arrives at Mikrotik, is sent to the WAN interface and returns back to Mikrotik, and that's it, it no longer gets to the bridge.
The firewall is empty, only NAT masquerading.
What could be the problem? In which direction to dig?
Linux gateway:
Internal network: 192.168.10.0/24
Gateway address: 192.168.10.1
External address: xxxx
Mikrotik:
Internal network:
192.168.88.0/24
Gateway address: 192.168.88.1
External address: dynamic (yyyy)
