I'd like to route all traffic from an OpenVPN server client to the Wireguard client.

All the traffic keeps from the OpenVPN server keeps going to the internet instead of through the Wireguard client though.

I greatly appreciate any insight into what's missing or incorrect here.

I'm NOT a WG expert, but logically, in order to have the OpenVPN server's IP network routed over the WG client, the WG client must be serving as the default gateway.

As I understand it, the Allowed IPs field is NOT based on the source IP (that will be NAT'd over the tunnel anyway), but the *destination* IP(s) you want routed through the WG connection and over to the Peer.

IOW, it should be 0.0.0.0/0, which is effectively a default gateway setting. It routes *any* destination IP over the WG client, provided there isn't another more specific route that's known/available in the routing table (e.g., the private IP network).

Personally, I would use 0.0.0.0/1,128.0.0.0/1 for Allowed IPs, since these act as overrides rather than overlaying the current default gateway w/ 0.0.0.0/0
