[Swan] Windows 10 client to libreswan VPN server: The Child SA expires often

The output of `ipsec showstates` is:

000 #5: "MYCONN-ikev2-cp"[3] 94.253.211.1:4500 
STATE_V2_ESTABLISHED_IKE_SA (established IKE SA); EXPIRE in 25923s; 
newest ISAKMP; idle;
000 #9: "MYCONN-ikev2-cp"[3] 94.253.211.1:4500

ESPin=396KB ESPout=23MB ESPmax=0B

What is the problem?

The Child SA is renegotiated every about 5 minutes despite saying EXPIRE 
in 28800 s.

This renegotiation causes Internet TV to pause, requiring manual 
intervention, and I suspect it could severe AnyDesk remote desktop used 
by our accounting. Is there a workaround for this?

Kind regards,
Mirsad
