got that, needs to be specifically on the WG-Client (same as OVPN) ,by default is 0.0.0.0/0. It’s makes lot of sense,but i thought that i can manage that from the WG-Server
The cryptokeyrouting on the MT, for example, for local traffic entering the tunnel matches outgoing traffic and selects the appropriate peer. NOT FILTERING.
The cryptokeyrouting on the MT, for example, for remote traffic arriving at the router and with intention to exit the tunnel, is compared to the allowed IP peer list and if matched is allowed through FILTERING.
So technically one is matching/selecting, the other is straight filtering.
You can but not by means of Wireguard. allowed-address is compared to the destination address of a packet to be sent to the peer, and to source address of a packet received from a peer. So to “manage that at the WG server”, you have to use firewall rules as usually.
One difference between MT and other usual WG clients is that MT has separate allowed addresses and routes. So on MT you can have allowed-address=0.0.0.0/0 (i.e. allow everything), but route only selected subnets you add routes for. Usual WG client would by default automatically add route for whole 0.0.0.0/0 (I think there’s option to not do that).
basically i’m saying that allowed-address works only between MikroTik.
For other devices (win/android/ios) i need to do (sindy mentioned) filter rules.
I probably don’t understand what exactly you mean, but again, no, allowed addresses is not anything special in RouterOS, it’s part of WG and works the same everywhere.
