I don't comment very often but this is pure genius , very well done. I also appreciate the videos explaining the technology and choices made. Bravo

THIS is the beauty of open source development. Absolutely amazing that you've been able not only to redeem Wireguard on Pfsense but improve the implementation and make it more robust. You Sir, have earned my like and my subscription. Keep the vids and updates coming!

I am looking forward to the release of this Package. Testing Wireguard vs my OpenVPN solution in pfSense was something I planned to test in 2.5.0 and of course we all know what happened there. One thing I'd like to ask about is the auto creation of an Interface tied to the tunnel, much like the current OpenVPN implementation for a Client TUN. Is that possible?

[@ChristianMcDonald]

WireGuard is a one to one or one to many protocol. Meaning one peer can talk to another peer for site to site and routed links...or one peer can talk to many peers, like in a road warrior configuration. In road warrior one to many, the "server" peer has many peer definitions and those tunnels only permit traffic destined to that peers tunnel address (like 10.1.15.3/32). But on the client peer might want full tunnel so it routes everything (0.0.0.0/0) out the tunnel. I'll have video tutorials on all of this soon

[@AllenSampsell]

@@ChristianMcDonald ahh thanks for that explanation. I don’t have any experience at all with Wireguard at this point. I’m looking forward to the tutorials. And I sent you a little something through GitHub earlier today. Really appreciate quality efforts like this.

Thank for this. QR-Code would be nice for iPhone configuration!

How do you install the package?

[@ChristianMcDonald]

If you're on 2.6.0 you can install it via the pfSense GUI package manager. If you're on 2.5.1, you'll need to sideload the package. We also have a custom repository that you can install that will allow you to easily install via the GUI on either version. github.com/theonemcdonald/pfSense-pkg-WireGuard/wiki/Installation
