Rust Implementation of WireGuard
Usage
Most Linux kernel WireGuard users are used to adding an interface with ip link add wg0 type wireguard
.
With wireguard-rs, instead simply run:
$ wireguard-rs wg0
This will create an interface and fork into the background. To remove the interface, use the usual ip link del wg0
,
or if your system does not support removing interfaces directly, you may instead remove the control socket via
rm -f /var/run/wireguard/wg0.sock
, which will result in wireguard-rs shutting down.
When an interface is running, you may use wg(8)
to configure it, as well as the usual ip(8)
and ifconfig(8)
commands.
Platforms
Linux
This will run on Linux; however YOU SHOULD NOT RUN THIS ON LINUX. Instead use the kernel module; see the installation page for instructions.
Windows
Coming soon.
FreeBSD
Coming soon.
OpenBSD
Coming soon.
Building
The wireguard-rs project is targeting the current nightly.
To build this project obtain nightly cargo
and rustc
through rustup, then simply run:
cargo build --release
To compile wireguard-rs to your current platform.
