[Swan-dev] What does "missing v2CP reply" mean?

[Brady Johnson]

Here is the nmstate pull request to fix the dhcp issue.
https://github.com/nmstate/nmstate/pull/2556

I requested to see if it is possible to see the configuration Libreswan
generates or if nmstate directly communicates with Libreswan via Whack
messages. I'll report back with more info about that.

Thanks,
