      Given a network administrator requires a setup where multiple subnets need to communicate securely through a single IPsec tunnel, 

      When they configure an IPsec policy in NetworkManager-libreswan using leftsubnets and rightsubnets, specifying multiple subnets in the format

      (networkA/netmaskA, networkB/netmaskB, ...)

      Then, NetworkManager-libreswan should correctly interpret and apply these configurations, establishing IPsec tunnels that facilitate all specified combinations of subnet pairings as defined.

       

      Definition of Done:

      • The implementation meets the acceptance criteria
      • Integration tests are written and pass
      • The feature is part of a downstream build attached to an errata
      • The release note text is filled
      • The feature is backported into RHEL-9.4

      This is the NM-libreswan counterpart of RHEL-32947 and should allow users to configure IPsec policies using leftsubnets and rightsubnets{}, specifying multiple subnets. This is needed for setups requiring secure communication across multiple subnets through a single IPsec tunnel, a common requirement in complex network environments.
