      Hello,

      I have been able to set up a Wireguard tunnel with multiple peers. I have connectivity from the main (server) to all the dynamic remote peers. However, on the main (server) the firewall rules for the Wireguard server and the interfaces do nothing. I have a rule to block traffic on the Wireguard server and on each interface for each tunnel. Traffic still is permitted. 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.
