+Wireguard requires the generation of a keypair, a private key which will decrypt
+incoming traffic and a public key, which the peer(s) will use to encrypt traffic.
+
+Generate a keypair
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Generate the keypair, which creates a public and private part and stores it
within VyOS.
+It will be used per default on any configured wireguard interface, even if

+Generate named keypairs
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

+Named keypairs can be used on a interface basis, if configured.
+If multiple wireguard interfaces are being configured, each can have
+their own keypairs.
