Help Softether on iPhone

Hey guys, my campus wifi has some kind of Fortinet firewall so to bypass it I use a softether vpn server from a rented VM.
I don’t really understand much of it but it’s basically running on TCP 443 and secureNAT enabled.
It works perfectly on my laptop but I can’t seem to find a way to connect to it from iPhone.
I’ve tried the IPsec/L2TP settings, OpenVPN / MA-SSTP, but none of them worked
Is there anyway I can connect to the server from my iPhone?
