Bug Description
Latest strongswan from debian has mediation support enabled which allows peer-to-peer IPsec even if both peers are behind NAT. IPsec mediation is somewhat similar to STUN and requires a publicly reachable third party which helps with mediation.
Please note that medcli/medsrv are not required for mediation, they are just optional web frontends for mediation management. As such, I'm not asking for enabling of medcli/medsrv.
Debian bug #851507 is virtually identical to this and has been fixed in Debian strongswan 5.5.1-3 . Syncing that package version from debian should be enough to have mediation enabled.
The required switch during configure is --enable-mediation
Thank you!

Hi,
thank you for your report and your help to make Ubuntu better.
We are feature frozen for Zesty already and have picked up 5.5.1-1 there.
We will pick up the feature for the release after zesty.
If you think this is urgent and important please make this a FFE (https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/FreezeExcep tionProcess).
But I'd think and hope that zesty+1 is ok for that.
