I am trying to setup a wireguard server on freebsd using this guide. the only thing i’ve done different is make the AllowedIPs 0.0.0.0/0

I seem to have messed something up because when I have wireguard running, i cannot ping or curl anything from the server. It doesn’t take down the machine though, I am still able to ssh into the server.

I still have yet to get the client to actually connect, but i assume this networking issue is a potential cause. googling doesn’t seem to help me find anyone with my same issue.

my wg0.conf is as follows

[Interface] Address = 10.96.100.1/32 # address the server will bind to

ListenPort = 51820 # listener port

PrivateKey = [redacted]

[Peer] #phone

AllowedIPs = 0.0.0.0/0

PreSharedKey = [redacted]

PublicKey = [redacted]

    Slightly off-topic: I’m not too familiar with FreeBSD (I use OpenBSD), but others may be interested to know you may be able to configure wireguard interfaces without installing any packages. It probably just involves running some ifconfig commands at boot via some entries in /etc/rc.conf. See https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/network/
