Now, I cannot even ping the remote ip address which downloaded from the config ovpn file which is something like this
ff.cvpn-endpoint-sadasr23123w.prod.clientvpn.ap-northeast-3.amazonaws.com nor I cannot create a vpn connection from my milesight gateway

AWS Client VPN endpoint use either the port 443 or the port 1194, with support for both TCP and UDP

I don't think that ICMP  (ping) is open on the Client VPN endpoint

You can try "telnet 443" instead of ping.
