Introduction to a Peer-to-Peer WireGuard configuration example, this also covers LAN-TO-LAN connectivity aspect as well.
Introduction to a Peer-to-Peer WireGuard configuration example, this also covers LAN-TO-LAN connectivity aspect as well. WireGuard is simple, fast, lean, and modern VPN that utilizes secure and trusted cryptography.
This page will show you an example on how to configure a basic tunnel between WireGuard interface and its peers.

After that you need to Enable this instance and in the <b>Listen Port</b> field enter your desired port. WireGuard by default uses <b>51820</b> port which will be used in this example.

Lastly you need to enter IP Address for instance. We will set the SERVER will have 10.0.0.1 and Clients will have 10.0.0.2 IP addresses and increasing.

<b>Note:</b> enter IP address <b>and</b> its mask e.g. <b>10.0.0.1/24</b>
<b>Note:</b> You will need to copy the Public and Private Keys for Peer instances between server and Clients
<li>Please ensure that you save the Public key for later use</li>

In the <b>'''General Setup<b>''' section you need to enter '''Public Key''' and '''Allowed IPs''' from the Remote instance you want to connect to.
In the <b>General Setup</b> section you need to enter <b>Public Key</b> and Allowed IPs from the Remote instance you want to connect to.
In this example a peer from Client1 needs to connect to RUTX11, which means <b>SERVER</b> will enter Public Key and Allowed IPs from Client1.

You will need the Public Keys of the Client VPN users that you setup, so it is recommended to create the Instances to Generate the Keys for use of Peer instances
