    -Is the server reachable?   -> ping from the client device to your FG

    -Is the vpn request packets hitting the FG interface?  -> sniff at the interface while try connecting (diag sniffer packet INTERFACE 'host SOURCE_PUB_IP')

    If not, you need to troubleshoot the client device and local internet.

    If both are ok, you need to run ike app debug on the FG like in below cookbook.

    http://cookbook.fortinet.com/ipsec-vpn-troubleshooting/

    That would probably tell you why your FG doesn't accept the vpn request.
