Google Cloud VPN:

About

Google Cloud VPN is a managed Google Cloud service for connecting a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network with on-premises networks, other VPC networks, or peer networks in other cloud environments through encrypted IPsec site-to-site tunnels. It offers HA VPN gateways for redundant, dynamic BGP connections and Classic VPN gateways for static-routing configurations. Teams can configure gateways and tunnels in the Google Cloud console, Google Cloud CLI, or Compute Engine API, then monitor tunnel status and metrics. Cloud VPN supports IPv4 and, with HA VPN, IPv6; it can work with Cloud Router for dynamic route exchange and interoperate with compatible third-party VPN gateways that support IPsec and IKE. It is designed for private network connectivity, not client-to-gateway remote access or routing traffic to the public internet. Pricing is usage-based and includes gateway tunnel-hours and data transfer.

About

strongSwan is an open-source implementation of the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocols for securing IP traffic with policy- and route-based IPsec virtual private networks. It supports IKEv2 and IKEv1, IPv4 and IPv6 tunnels, mobility, certificate and pre-shared-key authentication, EAP methods, and a modular plugin system for cryptography, credentials, and networking. Network administrators and developers use it to build VPN gateways and connect network endpoints, from remote-access setups to complex IPsec deployments. The core software runs on Linux and has been ported to FreeBSD, macOS, Windows, Android, and iOS. An Android VPN client and a NetworkManager plugin for Linux desktops are also available. The source code is licensed under GPLv2, with commercial licensing available for most components and separate commercial support options. Documentation covers installation, configuration, features, and troubleshooting.
