libreswan with Ikev2 client and plain text password

bo flag

I need to set up a connection to VPN server with Libreswan. I can't use strongswan, since they are not working well together when installed on the same OC.

My system is Linux Debian 10 (Buster) Kernel version: 4.19.0-17

I already have a working L2TP/IPSec VPN connection, so dont want to install additional software.

When I scan remote VPN with ike-scan, server responses with next:

Handshake returned:HDR=(CKY-R=574aa700c8ed7aa6, IKEv2) SA=(Encr=AES_CBC,KeyLength=128 Integ=HMAC_SHA1_96 Prf=HMAC_SHA1 DH_Group=2:modp1024) KeyExchange(132 bytes) Nonce(32 bytes) Notification(4 bytes)

This looks like libreswan can support the connection. When I try to start new connection I added into ipsec.conf, I got next:

002 "ikev2-srv" #1: constructed local IKE proposals for ikev2-srv (IKE SA initiator selecting KE): 1:IKE:ENCR=AES_GCM_C_256;PRF=HMAC_SHA2_512,HMAC_SHA2_256,HMAC_SHA1;INTEG=NONE;DH=MODP2048,MODP3072,MODP4096,MODP8192,ECP_256 2:IKE:ENCR=AES_GCM_C_128;PRF=HMAC_SHA2_512,HMAC_SHA2_256,HMAC_SHA1;INTEG=NONE;DH=MODP2048,MODP3072,MODP4096,MODP8192,ECP_256 3:IKE:ENCR=AES_CBC_256;PRF=HMAC_SHA2_512,HMAC_SHA2_256,HMAC_SHA1;INTEG=HMAC_SHA2_512_256,HMAC_SHA2_256_128,HMAC_SHA1_96;DH=MODP2048,MODP3072,MODP4096,MODP8192,ECP_256 4:IKE:ENCR=AES_CBC_128;PRF=HMAC_SHA2_512,HMAC_SHA2_256,HMAC_SHA1;INTEG=HMAC_SHA2_512_256,HMAC_SHA2_256_128,HMAC_SHA1_96;DH=MODP2048,MODP3072,MODP4096,MODP8192,ECP_256 (default)

002 "ikev2-srv" #1: WARNING: connection ikev2-srv PSK length of 8 bytes is too short for sha PRF in FIPS mode (10 bytes required)

Question is: how to configure mentioned Ikev2 vpn connection with libreswan? I got login / pass and server ip and nothing more. Also , my pass is smaller than it is expected(according to output).

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
