@powerextreme said in Firewall Rules not affecting Wireguard traffic:

I ping from my local LAN to the remote peer LAN and it goes through. What am I missing here?

You have to block this on your LAN Interface.

@themac
Solved the dhcp server of my router is giving ip in the same range as the pfsense dhcp server.

I've identified that the above simulated state happens when failover happens in rapid succession.

I mean if tier 1 wan happens to go DOWN and UP in rapid succession, the rules/state update logic hangs like in the example above. It it happens slower, udp connections keeps living on tier 2.

@joshhboss What kind of issues?

RESOLVED by repeatedly uninstalling and reinstalling.

ok, 3rd time is a charm I guess…

Attempt 1: Successful upgrade pkg via Package Manager, but kernel mod fails to load, service won’t start.

Attempt 2: Successful removal of existing pkg via Package Manager and install from “Available Packages”, but kernel mod fails to load, service won’t start again…

Attempt 3: Successful removal of existing pkg via Package Manager and install from “Available Packages”, service stars just fine, All tunnels online and peers connect successfully.

@packetpirate
It seems like I am facing the same problem:

https://forum.netgate.com/topic/173025/mullvad-gateway-as-dns-resolver-gateway-does-not-work

did you ever solve yours?

anyone?

@djwopasadjlk, I don't consider myself much more than a newb either! LOL

Unfortunately, no, I do not have a blog. On the plus side, there are countless blogs out there to cover all of what I've done and more!

For my pfSense setup, nguvu and Lawrence Systems taught me a lot! You can find a good baseline guide here!

LinuxBabe.com is an excellent source for information. This guide paved the way to self-host an email server and get around a dynamic IP and all the restrictions associated with it.

Don't be afraid to play around. I've broken a lot more than I've fixed/got running! If you can, pick up a used server. You can find them for pennies on the dollar. Typically, if you swap in some new hard drives, you'll get several solid years out of them, depending on how old they are. Turn it into a virtual host (VMware/Proxmox VE/KVM/Zen/etc.). Snapshots are your friend!!!

Oh, and for the record, I was able to get everything working. Now, instead of using HAProxy in pfSense and routing traffic through CloudFlare to my residential dynamic IP, all internet traffic comes through my public VPS with HAproxy and WireGuard, back to each local VM. The trick to making everything reachable was found in PolicyRouting.

I hope this helps you on your journey!

@patpend I forgot one thing...

https://forum.netgate.com/topic/171272/wireguard-site-to-site-mobile-connection-only-routes-1-side-of-tunnel

Check that too. I thought that was created automatically but that user had to create it so you may have to also.

@xxnumbxx said in Wireguard Site-to-Site + Mobile connection only routes 1 side of tunnel:

I got it. I created a NAT outbound rule allowing traffic from the mobile VPN.

@xxnumbxx I tried this with no success.
Which side gets the outbound rule and which IP ranges go in the rule? Can you post an example please?

@lawrencesystems Yep, that was the solution. See redmine #13153.

Thought I was the only soul on the internet who'd encountered that problem. Figures if anyone else would have bumped up against it, it would be you guys 🙂

for future reference, this was an unexpected self made problem, I selected the dev channel as was tempted to try the latest pfplus 22.05 beta but never upgraded, this however I found sets packages to the same channel so 0.1.6_2 isn't compatible with 22.01
