Hello,
I have an Edgerouter-X recently migrated from 23.05.6 to 24.10.5.
Today I tried to add another peer to my wireguard tunnel (WG1) via LUCI.
It all went well in LUCI (the peer was present) but nothing was written in /etc/config so the peer was never really added.
Rebooting the router made the peer disappear also from LUCI.
So I tried to create a new tunnel (WG2) via LUCI and this time everything went well in LUCI and in /etc/network.
In the end it seems like my original tunnel WG1 is immutable: every peer that I add never gets registered and disappear after reboot…..

Make sure the allowed_ip sets of multiple peers on the same tunnel do not overlap. That will prevent Wireguard from working. I don't know if Luci checks this.
Thanks,
I checked it, there’s no overlap.
The problem is that every peer I add to WG1 never gets writter by LUCI in etc/network and so it’s invisible to wireguard
Can you delete the seemingly immutable wireguard interface?
Good idea, I’ll try when my daughter will be at home from campus (to avoid to sever her connection)

Just to state the obvious, but you did hit save&apply and have no pending commits listed in the upper right corner?
Yes, save and apply done.
