HI.
When connecting with wireguard, the connection status goes directly to "idle" and is not up.
How do i resolve this?

Hello,

the idle state means that the VPN is ready to initiate the connection and is waiting for the first packet to be forwarded through the VPN.
The wireguard VPN only forward packets that are allowed by the "Allowed IPs" option which you can find in the "Peers" section.

You're welcome.
Do you mean that the configuration was not imported correctly?
