Can't route back down ipsec tunnel from VPS

I am trying to establish an ipsec VPN from a Draytek router on the edge of our corporate network to a VPS on Digital Ocean. I've set up the VPN on the VPS using this script on an Ubuntu 14.04 machine. I believe the script downloads and installs libreswan and prompts for a few basic configuration questions etc. I've made a few changes to the ipsec.conf the script creates. My problem is, I can ping from the router to the VPS and I can see the packets arriving on the VPS showing as coming from the private IP address of the router, but nothing I've tried has allowed me to route packets back down the tunnel to the router. Therefore, from the router's pov it appears the pings are timing out.

The router is connected directly to the internet on one of its interfaces and it is configured with a local IP address of 10.111.1.1. The VPS has a single interface connected directly to the internet.

When the VPN is established this is the routing table on the VPS:

Kernel IP routing table
Destination     Gateway         Genmask         Flags   MSS Window  irtt Iface
default         178.62.64.1     0.0.0.0         UG        0 0          0 eth0
10.111.1.1      *               255.255.255.255 UH        0 0          0 eth0
178.62.64.0     *               255.255.192.0   U         0 0          0 eth0

Note the second entry is created when the VPN is established.

If I try to ping 10.111.1.1 I get:

PING 10.111.1.1 (10.111.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
From <public IP address - eth0> icmp_seq=1 Destination Host Unreachable

Here is the output from ipsec verify:

and here is the content of /etc/ipsec.conf (the commented out lines are results of previous experimentation with the same results):

  rekey=no
  keyingtries=5
  dpddelay=30
  dpdtimeout=120
  dpdaction=clear

This is the relevant part of the routing table from the router:

Key: C - connected, S - static, R - RIP, * - default, ~ - private
*            0.0.0.0/ 0.0.0.0          via <public IP address>   WAN2
S~        10.10.10.0/ 255.255.255.0    via 178.62.73.215   VPN-10
C~        10.111.1.0/ 255.255.255.0    directly connected    LAN 
C    <public IP address>/ 255.255.255.224  directly connected    WAN2

Would appreciate someone pointing out what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks.


Solution 1:

OK, I've stumbled across the solution by removing the lines leftprotoport=17/1701 and rightprotoport=17/%any. Not sure why this worked buy hey ho! I can now ping from the server to the router and can ping devices hanging off the router. I've got another problem now but I'll post another question for that. Thanks all.
