Ondrej, thank you for testing. Could you run some tests in permissive mode and collect all AVCs?
Created attachment 1072594 [details] selinux policy update for libreswan in RHEL6 This patch contains changes required to the selinux policy for libreswan. I'm not sure if some of this has already been backported from rhel7

Thank you.
One more change is needed for XAUTH server mode PAM authentication: +auth_use_pam(ipsec_t)

bug #1315700 has AVCs - those should be quite same for rhel6.
