Routing and DHCP (Relay Agent) on RRAS

Good morning, I'm trying to set up a RRAS/VPN environment and so far I've deployed the RRAS and NPS server. The necessary certificate setup on our CA has also been finished. I read somewhere that on the RRAS, I needed to configure a LAN interface, and a separate AOVPN interface which is supposed to take care of the DHCP requests. So I created a separate VLAN for the clients, and I created a scope for this VLAN on our DHCP servers. In the RRAS interface I defined a DHCP Relay Agent, listening on the AOVPN interface. I have no idea whether this is correct though..

So I created a VPN connection on my Windows 10 client machine, and I can actually connect. However, I don't receive an IP address. The "Incoming bytes" column in IPv4 -> General -> AOVPN interface stays at 0, so it seems to me it's not even receiving any requests...
aovpn interfaces

I'd be grateful for tips/pointers!
Best regards

    Hi @Geert Stoelen I don't know what exactly do you have, but I build our AOVPN with Richards Guides... (https://directaccess.richardhicks.com/always-on-vpn/) and it work perfectly... take a look there and review your config ;)
