The SKU is this MR5100C-1BNCNS
In the Data sheet and user manual the word VPN Passthrough exists but is not elaborated on.

VPN passthrough suppport on M5 is for outgoing VPN connection.
M5 itself doesn't support a VPN server. That is why you can't see the settings on WebUI. But M5 will not block any incoming packets as long as Bell network doesn't block incoming VPN access based on your SIM subscription. You need to set up VPN server behind M5.
