Client Issue - Routes now apply immediately, not only on peer connection. #3907 causing Exit Node Traffic Failure

Open laserguy2020 opened this issue 6 months ago • 1 comments

Describe the problem

When instituting Exit Nodes on Mac OS since 0.46.0 client we now see Netbird connect but then all traffic stops if the Exit Node is configured. It looks like even netbird client traffic is being attempted to be passed over the Netbird Exit Node. This is even worse when multiple exit nodes are configured.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Configure Netbird Exit Node with 0.0.0.0/0 and weight 9999
  2. Connect MacOS Client
  3. Connects
  4. All Traffic Stops because netbird cannot talk to the Exit Node because of a cyclical route issue

Expected behavior

Traffic outside Netbird Communication to 0.0.0.0/0 should pass through the exit node.
