I created an L2TP server via this script:
https://kayama.dp.ua/blog/ubuntu-16-04-how-to-setup-l2tp-over-ipsec-vpn-serv.html
the client connects to the vpn but fails to navigate
Configuration
apt-get install strongswan xl2tpd
(optional, need to check ) apt-get install ppp libgmp3-dev bison flex
Edit /etc/ipsec.conf
conn L2TP-IPSEC

type=transport
esp=aes128-sha1
ike=aes128-sha-modp1024

left=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX # your router's external IP
leftprotoport=17/1701
right=%any
rightprotoport=17/%any

dpddelay=30
dpdtimeout=120
dpdaction=clear
#force all to be nat'ed. because of iOS

Edit /etc/ipsec.secrets
This file holds shared secrets or RSA private keys for authentication.
RSA private key for this host, authenticating it to any other host
