Virtual private networks / ProtonVPN + Wireguard + NAT-PMP
« on: March 07, 2024, 06:23:24 pm »
Hi all,
I've read through several topics in this forum about setting up ProtonVPN in OPNSense, however none of them seem to go over any procedures to get NAT-PMP port forwarding setup. Has anyone successfully set up ProtonVPN's wireguard config in OPNSense and also got automatic port forwarding working with it? I tried to leverage UPNP to automatically update the port forward in OPNSense, but the forward only seems to work locally within my network (eg. if I tried from my local network to hit the public proton IP, it works), but if trying to publically connect to my forwarded port using the pubic address assigned to my Proton wireguard interface it times out as if it's not being NAT'd properly at the firewall.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks
