Talk:Configure a Wireguard interface (wg)

Bringing up an interface using wg-tools

Then load the module

modprobe wireguard

Add it to /etc/modules to automatically load it on boot.

This does not seem to be necessary (any more)?

I can confirm that this was not necessary on 3.18 (faust).

Bringing up an interface using ifupdown-ng

The netifrc package is perfect for mounting the wg0 interface at boot in the specific case of using the plain wg command ( https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Wireguard#netifrc ), but only available for the edge branch.

What is the right approach for loading the configuration file and mount the wg0 network interface, at startup in the stable branch?
