I use Wireguard client on my laptop and iPhone to access the my ddwrt router when I am away from home. Wireguard allows me to access a server running Frigate and Home Assistant. My questions are when to use certain options in Wireguard.

1. When should I enable "CVE-2019-14899 Mitigation"?

2. When should I enable "NAT via Tunnel"?

3. When should I enable "Kill switch"?

4. When should I enable "Inbound Firewall"? This one would seem to defeat the purpose of being able to use Wireguard to get onto my home network.

5. Why do I not want to use "0.0.0.0/0" for allowed IPs?

6. When do I want to enable "block untunneled traffic" in the Wireguard client?

Thank you!
