It seems the script broke with opnsense/plugins@86c9e5c

The configd run now requires to give the wireguard instance as parameter.

So if you upgrade to 23.7.3 it breaks.

The following works:

$servers = (new \OPNsense\Wireguard\Server())->servers->server->iterateItems();

foreach ($servers as $key => $node) {
    if (!empty((string)$node->enabled)) {
        $backend->configdRun("wireguard start {$key}");
    }
}

// repeat for stop

This is now unnecessary as proper CARP support is now built into OPNsense with WireGuard since OPNsense 23.7.8 released 09 Nov 2023 and further improved in the latest OPNsense firmware.

The WireGuard follow CARP implementation by the OPNsense dev team is excellent and it works really well!
