wg-manager

The wg-manager provides an easy-to-use graphical web interface to import, setup, and manage WireGuard server(s).

The features of wg-manager includes:

Server

• Create/Delete/Modify
• Start/Stop/Restart server
• Import existing

Peer

• Create/Delete/Modify
• Bandwidth usage statistics
• Export by QRCode, Text

General

• Modify Admin User

Dependencies

• Linux >= 5.6 (Alternatively: wireguard-dkms)

Common Installation Steps

1. Enable ip forwarding with sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
   • To make the forwarding persistent add net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 to /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf
2. It is recommended to have a firewall protecting your servers

Notes

• A few people has experienced issues with running the dockerized method using bridged networking. To fix this, you can use network_mode: host. Note that you can no longer reverse-proxy the web interface from reverse proxies such as jwilder/nginx-proxy.

Method #1: Docker-compose

  wireguard:
    container_name: wireguard-manager
    image: perara/wireguard-manager
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN
    #network_mode: host # Alternatively
    ports:
       - 51800:51900/udp
       - 8888:8888
    volumes:
      - ./wg-manager:/config
    environment:
      HOST: 0.0.0.0
      PORT: 8888
      ADMIN_PASSWORD: admin
      ADMIN_USERNAME: admin
      WEB_CONCURRENCY: 1

or plain docker here

Method #2: Bare Metal

• Installation on Debian/Ubuntu
• Installation on Raspberry PI 4

Guides

• Importing Existing configuration
• Reverse Proxy

Usage

When docker container/server has started, go to http://localhost:8888

Roadmap

Primaries

• Implement multi-server support (setting up site-2-site servers from the GUI)
• Extending multi-server support to enable custom access lists (A peer can be assigned to multiple servers, as part of the ACL)

Other

• Eventual bugfixes
• Improve Auth
• Improve everything...
