I'm trying to set up my Android device to connect to my VPN The instructions say to use the L2TP/IPSec PSK setting. I don't have that setting; I only have IKEv2/IPSec PSK., Is it possible with this setting?

I saw it was an old issue on github (see https://github.com/SoftEtherVPN/SoftEtherVPN/issues/13 ). Interestingly, even after one decade, this issue is still open. They suggested porting Openswan or StrongSwan to fix it.

But it's Android, for me, I wouldn't necessarily insist on using IKEv2; I'd look for a third-party SSTP client to solve the problem, such as Open-SSTP-Client(https://github.com/kittoku/Open-SSTP-Client)

Ditto on the Open SSTP client for android. It notably more modern/secure than ipsec/l2tp type setups.
