[Astlinux-devel] Multiple peers with Wireguard

[Michael K. <mic...@ip...>]

Hi Devs

I have a couple of questions regarding Wireguard in Astlinux:

  1.  Having to restart Wireguard to re-read the wg0.peer file is not particularly good for multiple clients as I assume it drops all the current connections? I tried wg setconf wg0 /mnt/kd/wireguard/peer/wg0.peer which re-reads the configuration but you still seem to need to restart to activate it! I did however try to add a peer this way ‘wg set wg0 peer <public key> endpoint <ip:port> allowed-ips <allowed subnet> and it came up immediately without a restart. Could we add this into the GUI somehow?
  2.  Is there an option for a peer name in wg0.peer other than the nonsensical Public Key natively in Wireguard? If not, can we add something
  3.  The Wireguard VPN status on the Status Tab will start to use up quite a bit of space with multiple clients as it uses 6 lines per user whereas OpenVPN only uses 1. Should we consider reformatting the output as the Status Tab is already quite large when you have a large number of users?
Looking forward to discussing this.
