Unable to log into OPNsense WebUI via Wireguard client - wrong credentials?

[lpiwowarek]

Hi team,

I haven't found anything about this specific case on Google. First time setting up WG remote access.

OPNsense is 23.7.7_3

Trying to log into OPNsense WebUI on the Wireguard peer IP (x.x.250.1) results in invalid credentials error.

Tried two different client peers - the WebUI login page loads, but credentials are refused as wrong.

Connecting via OpenVPN, using OPNsense LAN IP works fine with the same credentials.

Curiously, login attempts are not logged in Audit log.

Has anyone run into this and can explain?
