Hey the new dietpi-vpn addition to v7.2 is great but I’m having issues with the killswitch.

I am able to enable it after it automatically installs iptables, but upon a reboot I’m unable to connect to my Raspberry Pi 4. I see it successfully connect to my router, but it is unresponsive via SSH after turning on killswitch and rebooting. What settings should I be changing to allow SSH? I’m assuming I need to adjust iptables? I’m trying to do a headless setup
