.. _wireguard: WireGuard VPN Interface ----------------------- WireGuard is an extremely simple yet fast and modern VPN that utilizes state-of-the-art cryptography. 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:: sh 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:: sh wg01# run show wireguard pubkey u41jO3OF73Gq1WARMMFG7tOfk7+r8o8AzPxJ1FZRhzk= 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. The commands below will generate 2 keypairs, which are not releated to each other. .. code-block:: sh wg01:~$ configure wg01# run generate wireguard named-keypairs KP01 wg01# run generate wireguard named-keypairs KP02 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:: sh 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 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. To use a named key on an interface, the option private-key needs to be set. .. code-block:: sh set interfaces wireguard wg01 private-key KP01 set interfaces wireguard wg02 private-key KP02 The command ``run show wireguard named-keypairs pubkey KP01`` will then show the public key, which needs to be shared with the peer. **remote side** .. code-block:: sh 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:: sh 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:: sh wg01# run generate wireguard preshared-key rvVDOoc2IYEnV+k5p7TNAmHBMEGTHbPU8Qqg8c/sUqc= Copy the key, as it is not stored on the local file system.
