Title: [SOLVED] WAN cannot connect
Post by: alh on February 02, 2022, 08:17:39 pm
I just configured an OPNsense firewall with a WAN interface behind another router. All ports are forwarded to the OPNsense.

I setup WireGuard with wg0 as Server (dial in) and an OpenVPN Server. Both interfaces come up and are running on their respective interface and ports.

However, I cannot connect to wg0 or OpenVPN as client. A packet capture on WAN shows my requests arriving but there is no reply. The weird thing is, that there is NOTHING in the firewall log. I started with allowing relevant ports on WAN (logging enabled) then allowing all on WAN (logging on) or allowing nothing at all. In all scenarios there is nothing in the firewall logs, nothing.

This is not the first OPNsense I setup but the first time I experience this behaviour. Any ideas?

I upgraded to 22.1 then deleted OpenVPN/WireGuard configs and did a fresh start. Now it is working... no idea why.

Hi Alh

I'm glad you resolved your issue .... Sadly, I didn't have a clue.

I am wondering how you marked your message as [SOLVED].
Thanks

Took me a while to understand that, too.

You need to edit your original post and change the title to "[SOLVED] blabla" :-)

There is no such functionality in this forum as such.
