Hi I am seeing the following martian sources on my firewall logs ```auto 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 104.20.26.55 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 173.194.183.137 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 18.172.153.95 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 216.239.34.223 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 3.166.49.14 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 74.125.168.106 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 1 Time(s): IPv4: martian source 74.125.168.134 from 10.0.0.2, on dev green0 10 Time(s): ll header: 00000000: 00 e0 4c 22 6e 1e 8c 5a f8 eb e8 d5 08 00 1 Time(s): net_ratelimit: 11 callbacks suppressed ``` This is a wireguard roadwarrior setup, allowing my laptop to access Home LAN servers, but not internet (`AllowIPs: 192.168.1.0/24`) The firewall has been setup to 1. Allow traffic from `10.0.0.0/24` → `ppp0` as I want other wg clients to be able to connect to internet via IPFire. 2. SourceNAT traffic from `10.0.0.0/24` → `192.168.1.0` in order to make use of DNS and other local services ![image](https://community.ipfire.org/uploads/default/original/2X/8/84a539a92fa54c72818ad8133e559066ae9133c6.png) I have a suspicion that the VPN client was active when I transitioned from work network into my local LAN and tried to connect. Could this be the reason of the martian source logs ? * * * ```auto IPFire version IPFire 2.29 (x86_64) - core196 Pakfire version 2.29-x86_64 Kernel version Linux ipfire 6.12.34-ipfire #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue Jul 15 14:11:05 GMT 2025 x86_64 GNU/Linux ```
