Subject: [PATCH] Reload firewall rules after NetBird service start (#67)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

pfSense loads firewall rules during boot before wt0 is created, so per-interface rules don’t apply. This triggers a filter reload after service starts so pf picks up the rules once wt0 is available.
