See https://www.wireguard.com for more +information. + +Configuration +^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +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 +multiple interfaces are being configured. + +.. code-block:: none + + wg01:~$ configure + wg01# run generate wireguard keypair + +The public key is being shared with your peer(s), your peer will encrypt all +traffic to your system using this public key. + +.. code-block:: none + + wg01# run show wireguard pubkey + u41jO3OF73Gq1WARMMFG7tOfk7+r8o8AzPxJ1FZRhzk= + +Wireguard Interface configuration +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +The next step is to configure your local side as well as the policy based +trusted destination addresses. If you only initiate a connection, the listen +port and endpoint is optional, if you however act as a server and endpoints +initiate the connections to your system, you need to define a port your clients +can connect to, otherwise it's randomly chosen and may make it difficult with +firewall rules, since the port may be a different one when you reboot your +system. + +You will also need the public key of your peer as well as the network(s) you +want to tunnel (allowed-ips) to configure a wireguard tunnel. The public key +below is always the public key from your peer, not your local one. + +**local side** + +.. code-block:: none + + set interfaces wireguard wg01 address '10.1.0.1/24' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 description 'VPN-to-wg02' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 peer to-wg02 allowed-ips '10.2.0.0/24' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 peer to-wg02 endpoint '192.168.0.142:12345' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 peer to-wg02 pubkey 'XMrlPykaxhdAAiSjhtPlvi30NVkvLQliQuKP7AI7CyI=' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 port '12345' + set protocols static interface-route 10.2.0.0/24 next-hop-interface wg01 + +.. note:: The `endpoint` must be an IP and not a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). Using a FQDN will result in unexpected behavior. + +The last step is to define an interface route for 10.2.0.0/24 to get through +the wireguard interface `wg01`. Multiple IPs or networks can be defined and +routed, the last check is allowed-ips which either prevents or allows the +traffic. + +**remote side** + +.. code-block:: none + + set interfaces wireguard wg01 address '10.2.0.1/24' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 description 'VPN-to-wg01' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 peer to-wg02 allowed-ips '10.1.0.0/24' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 peer to-wg02 endpoint '192.168.0.124:12345' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 peer to-wg02 pubkey 'u41jO3OF73Gq1WARMMFG7tOfk7+r8o8AzPxJ1FZRhzk=' + set interfaces wireguard wg01 port '12345' + set protocols static interface-route 10.1.0.0/24 next-hop-interface wg01 + +Assure that your firewall rules allow the traffic, in which case you have a +working VPN using wireguard. + +.. code-block:: none + + wg01# ping 10.2.0.1 + PING 10.2.0.1 (10.2.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. + 64 bytes from 10.2.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.16 ms + 64 bytes from 10.2.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.77 ms + + wg02# ping 10.1.0.1 + PING 10.1.0.1 (10.1.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. + 64 bytes from 10.1.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=4.40 ms + 64 bytes from 10.1.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=1.02 ms + +An additional layer of symmetric-key crypto can be used on top of the +asymmetric crypto, which is optional. + +.. code-block:: none + + wg01# run generate wireguard preshared-key + rvVDOoc2IYEnV+k5p7TNAmHBMEGTHbPU8Qqg8c/sUqc= + +Copy the key, as it is not stored on the local file system.
