AFAIK all works on the system, zerotier-one version is 1.6.2,
Linux loki 5.4.78-2-pve #1 SMP PVE 5.4.78-2 (Thu, 03 Dec 2020 14:26:17 +0100) x86_64 GNU/Linux
using Proxmox 6.3-3.

Any idea if I should do something here or maybe we need a fix?

Google found this maybe similar issue:

If I should provide some more information, please ask.

Thanx

I find the same situation happening on Debian too.
Linux localhost 4.19.0-13-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.160-2 (2020-11-28) x86_64 GNU/Linux

m centos 8 too

Linux 4.18.0-193.19.1.el8_2.x86_64 #1 SMP x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
