SUMMARY - default name contains spaces and thus results in cancellation when adding new VPN entry. (if name not changed) - entering a ipv6 ip in allowed ip text box leads to cancellation of editing the entry when trying to apply it, but ipv6 ip is a legal option in wireguard (for example 0.0.0.0, ::/0) - don't cancel the entry when illegal inputs are made, but rather block user from applying the change.

I notice that in the example given, there is not a CIDR mask given on the IPv4 part though. It should actually be: "0.0.0.0/0, ::/0" so this might be the problem. What is showing when you enter this string in the Allowed IPs field? That field has an integrity check on it which should set the background color to an error color (on mine it shows red but that is theme dependent) and the OK button should be grayed out. So when you create a new WireGuard connection, you should see several fields (Private Key in the initial window and Public Key and Allowed IPs in the Peers window) should be highlighted with the error background and Save (or OK on the Peer window) should be grayed out and as you enter a correct value, the error background should go away and when all checked fields are good, the Save button should become active. Is this what you are seeing? > > - don't cancel the entry when illegal inputs are made, but rather block > user from applying the change. > Unfortunately the software architecture of plasma-nm with WireGuard being added after the rest of the interface was implemented, made this a whole lot easier for the data fields on the WireGuard Interface tab than the other tabs so that was what got implemented. A solution for the other entries (including the connection name field) is being explored. > SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS > Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux > KDE Plasma Version: 5.17.3 > KDE Frameworks Version: 5.64.0 > Qt Version: 5.13.2

Yes, I think I forgot the CIDR mask. However, if I try to add "0.0.0.0/0, ::/0" and then click apply and then ok, a notification comes up with wireguard.peers: Eigenschaft konnte nicht festgelegt werden: peer #1 has invalid allowed-ips setting which translates roughly to "Setting could not be set". > > So when you create a new WireGuard connection, you should see several fields > (Private Key in the initial window and Public Key and Allowed IPs in the > Peers window) should be highlighted with the error background and Save (or > OK on the Peer window) should be grayed out and as you enter a correct > value, the error background should go away and when all checked fields are > good, the Save button should become active. Is this what you are seeing? yes, I see this when I create a new wg connection.

I was about to make a new bug report but there already exists one. I'll just copypaste it all here SUMMARY Demonstrative video: https://youtu.be/RvEb-IFA-c8 If I create a new wireguard interface with minimal configuration, the setup will error out at the last moment because the default interface name contains invalid characters. I assume the error is referring to the spaces. This is especially infuriating if you've spent the setup setting up all the configurations instead of doing them after the interface is established because now you've got to do it all again. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start creating a new wireguard interface 2. Fill out the bare necessities and don't change anything 3. Save OBSERVED RESULT The configurator errors out claiming there's an invalid character in the name EXPECTED RESULT The name should allow for spaces SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 Qt Version: 6.6.2
