I am setting up an IPSEC VPN between a new OPNsense 16.7.12 VM and a Cisco ASA using a configuration similar to what I normally use with pfSense 2.3.2. Phase 1 appears to complete but phase 2 fails with NO_PROPOSAL_CHOSEN (log below). According to the pfSense docs (https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/IPsec_Troubleshooting), that implies an encryption or hash mismatch. The tunnel settings for phase 1 and phase 2 in the webConfigurator match what the other side expects. Are there any suggestions on how to troubleshoot the cause for this?
Thanks.

OPNsense appears to either ignore or handle differently the NAT/BINAT option on IPSEC phase 2 entries. In pfSense a BIN/NAT on a phase 2 entry generates a line in ipsec.conf with
leftsubnet = n.n.n.n|l.l.l.lwhere n.n.n.n is the NAT translation address and l.l.l.l is the local address. In OPNsense the same config generates just a
leftsubnet = l.l.l.lThe NAT translation address is not listed anywhere on the ipsec.conf. I tried all NAT/BINAT type options (Auto, NAT, BINAT) but none seem to generate the correct 'leftsubnet' for strongSwan in ipsec.conf. Manually editing 'leftsubnet' in ipsec.conf makes the tunnel work properly. My phase 2 NAT configurations use a single address (/32) to a single address (/32).
This behavior appears in OPNsense 16.7.12 and 17.1.b_60. Is there a way to enter NAT/BINAT in OPNsense such that it generates the proper 'leftsubnet'?

This issue appears related to the one discussed in NAT before IPSec question (https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=3696.0) and NAT before IPsec is not functional (https://github.com/opnsense/core/issues/440). If I understand it correctly, NAT/BINAT for IPSEC works in pfSense because they use a custom build of strongSwan and proprietary syntax in ipsec.conf (like the 'leftsubnet' entry above). It does NOT work in OPNsense due to the use of a mainline strongSwan, e.g. the NAT/BINAT parameters are ignored.
If that is the case. there should be a WARNING on the NAT/BINAT entry indicating it is still under development. Entering config parameters that are not used at all is misleading and can lead to many wasted hours.
