In some cases, the default FORWARD rule will be set to DROP, making return traffic to be dropped and communication to fail.

We can create a new forwarding rule for the return traffic e.g:

iptables -A NETBIRD-RT-FWD -s 100.64.0.0/16 -d 172.16.1.0/24 -m comment --comment netbird-fwd-out-ttt -j 
iptables -A NETBIRD-RT-FWD -s 172.16.1.0/24 -d 100.64.0.0/16 -m comment --comment netbird-fwd-in-ttt -j
