Ipsec VPN on BR200 issues
I am in Switzerland and have the following setup:
LTE Router has Swisscom SIM with public adress add-on plan.
I have forwarded tcp50 and udp 500 & 4500 to 192.168.1.4 and 192.168.20.2 respectively on both public routers
I cannot get the Ipsec Tunnel to come active
any advice is appreciated

Hello Erik,
Glad to met you here, too.
Unfortunately my test environment with a bunch of BR500 and 200 isn't fully ready to test IPsec site-to-site connections, and since an accident last week I'm active single handed on the keyboard only.
One thing that hit my eyes is the absence of a "NAT Traversal" or "NAT-T" control we usually see on other vendor VPN systems. However, so me earlier release notes talk of "Known issues ...NAT-T cannot be disabled with IPSec IKEv1." In my understanding, NAT-T should allow operating IPsec site2site connections over NAT routers.
Chiming back next week, time permitting.
