DRAYTEK 2925 to Azure VPN setup

Hi,

Im trying to configure a Draytek 2925 Router VPN to Azure, with the help of Microsoft, I have created the VPN setup on the Azure side but Im not able to quite get the VPN Lan to Lan setup working on the Draytek side. I have followed numerous articles online including the official one on the draytek site but have yet to succesfully connect. Has anyone here had any experience on doing this?

Thanks

VPN over IPSEC yes, with Draytec yes,  with azure no, other hardware yes.

What is successful, and what's not...
basically there are two phases:
1: using IKE create a key for further communication over IKE
2: create the key for Phase 2 and verify that the tunnel communicates.
If there are firewalls in between you need to enable protocol 50 (ESP). (compare TCP=6, UDP = 17).

So can you tell where the problem is (check logs?)
Looks like Draytek isn't supported by Microsoft. But it is a standards based implementation so if the Draytek supports the protocols then it should work. Here's the requirements for the Azure VPN:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/vpn-gateway/vpn-gateway-about-vpn-devices#ipsec

I did a quick check on Draytek's website for documentation and they don't have anything current so it might not be possible.
